In the literature on animal behavior, there is growing interest in the idea of phenotypic plasticity as a crucial factor in evolution. Among non-human primates, the Neotropical genus Sapajus is ideal to investigate hypotheses about behavioral plasticity as adaptation to diverse environmental contexts. Thus, this project aims at investigating the processes underlying the already observed b…
Socioecology is responsible for studying social systems using the behavioral ecology principles. Studying rodents social systems represent a valuable opportunity once this group shows high variations on social behavior, which may be an adaptation selected in evolutionary past and/or an adaptative feedback to the ecological context. Investigate the social organization flexibility by studyi…
Many studies have sought to understand the role of nutrients in primates' diet, as well as internal and external factors that influence them. These studies suggest that primates can base your diet on five main factors: (1) maximize energy, (2) maximize protein, (3) avoid or regulate the consumption of toxins, (4) regulate the intake of fiber and (5) obtain a nutritional balance. However, …
Human risk-taking is understood by evolutionary approach as a behavioral strategy selected against certain environmental and individual cues about the resources availability. Among the environmental cues, the unpredictability environment perception is one of the most influential in risk taking. However, there is no consensus on the prevalence of actual unpredictability perception of the c…

In the last decades, researchers have focused on the study of behaviors related to social and emotional regulation in primates, as well as on their interindividual differences, evaluating the behavioral variability in distinct situations and environments, considering that both intrinsic variables (age, sex, temperament) and extrinsic variables (enviromental demands) can influence the deve…
The post-doc will join of the team of the Thematic Project "Phenotypic Plasticity of Capuchin Monkeys (genus Sapajus): research on the effect of distinct ontogenetic trajectories and context-dependent activation" (FAPESP 2014 / 13237-1 process), under the coordination of Profa. Patrícia Izar, in the Laboratory of Studies on Development and Social Interaction of the Department of Experimen…

Interindividual differences began to receive more attention in studies of animal behavior in the recent decades. As such, the interest in animal personality emerges with the objective of studying this phenomenon from the ecological and evolutionary sciences. Personality research has been mainly based on a repeatability paradigm in experimental context and has focused little on the develop…
Food-associated calls are those vocalizations typically uttered in food-related contexts by many mammals and birds. Usually this vocalization attracts conspecifics to a food source, although in many cases the caller can utter for reasons other than the attraction. The attraction of others can occur by an association made between the call and the feeding context. There are several hypothes…
