Social eavesdropping in zebrafish: Tuning of attention to social interactions
Abril-de-Abreu, Rodrigo; Cruz, José; Oliveira, Rui FilipeGroup living animals may eavesdrop on signalling interactions between conspecifics in order to collect adaptively relevant information obtained from others, without incurring in the costs of firsthand information acquisition. This ability (aka social eavesdropping) is expected to impact Darwinian fitness, and hence predicts the evolution of cognitive processes that enable social animals to use public informatio...
Social dominance modulates eavesdropping in zebrafish
Abril-de-Abreu, Rodrigo; Cruz, Ana S.; Oliveira, Rui FilipeGroup living animals may eavesdrop on signalling interactions between conspecifics and integrate it with their own past social experience in order to optimize the use of relevant information from others. However, little is known about this interplay between public (eavesdropped) and private social information. To investigate it, we first manipulated the dominance status of bystander zebrafish. Next, we either a...
Brain transcriptomic response to social eavesdropping in zebrafish (Danio rerio)
Lopes, Joao Sollari; Abril-de-Abreu, Rodrigo; Oliveira, Rui FilipePublic information is widely available at low cost to animals living in social groups. For instance, bystanders may eavesdrop on signaling interactions between conspecifics and use it to adapt their subsequent behavior towards the observed individuals. This social eavesdropping ability is expected to require specialized mechanisms such as social attention, which selects social information available for learning...
