Dear All,
This is just a reminder that today (4pm) we have a seminar led by Dr. Maleen Thiele (Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology) entitled "Exploring The Flexible Nature of Joint Attention" - abstract below. The meeting will be held online (link below) but some of us will watch it from the common room.
"In this talk, I will provide an overview of our eye-tracking research investigating the role of joint attention interactions in guiding visual attention orienting, memory, and learning. Drawing on findings from multiple studies with German infants and toddlers, I will demonstrate how joint attention serves as a highly flexible social learning mechanism that operates dynamically across diverse social environments. Furthermore, I will share insights from our ongoing comparative work with chimpanzees, bonobos, and orangutans to explore the evolutionary history of this learning mechanism. I will conclude by discussing our findings within the broader context of cultural learning, and give an outlook on our current efforts in refining eye-tracking methodologies for developmental and comparative research."
