| Research Abstract |
I investigated the preference and cognitive features for auditory stimuli on non-human primate, including gibbons and the other Old World monkeys. I used the experimental paradigm requiring the special and intensive training and conditioning, which are auditory sensory reinforcement, to measure the auditory preference of primates. For the auditory sensory reinforcement, the body movements and orientation is reinforced by the sensory stimuli of consonant, dissonant, and biological sounds. The results revealed that monkey did not show the preference for the consonant stimuli, contrary to human auditory preference.
