| Research Abstract |
The purpose of the present study was to construct the hypotheses on the origin of rule-following behavior. I collected behavioral data of interaction during"social play with portable objects"among juvenile Japanese macaques and chimpanzees in the wild, using digital video camera. I analyzed the details of interaction, and consequently, I found some important facts, such as development of playing tool-using behavior among wild chimpanzees, forming the social network during social play among wild chimpanzees, and theoretical study on ethology of play, in terms of the study of origin of rule-following behavior.
