| Research Abstract |
Cognitive development was compared between humans and nonhuman primates. The main target was the chimpanzees that shared the latest common ancestor with humans. The study revealed the new fact that young chimpanzees have the better working memory than adult humans. Chimpanzees are living in the world of here and now. In contrast, humans often think about the past before the birth and the future after the death. We can be sympathetic to the people who are suffering in a remote place. In sum, the power of imagination is uniquely human.
