Adult Male-Infant Interactions among Monkeys Living in Nuclear Families
Suomi, Stephen J.
Child Development, 48, 4, 1255-70, Dec 77
Results showed that, although adult male monkeys are less active and more stable in their behavioral levels than mates or offspring, they clearly distribute both initiates and responses differently to male offspring, female offspring, mates and infant and adult monkeys from other families. Implications for human father-infant interaction are discussed. (JMB)
