The ability to recognize such knowledge-acquisition activity in another may demonstrate one aspect of Theory of Mind. Using a series of experiments in which chimpanzees were presented with a choice between an experimenter whose visual attention was available and another whose vision was occluded, we asked whether chimpanzees understood the relationship between visual attention and knowledge states. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6W9W-4T41PHY-1&_user=10&_coverDate=10%2F31%2F2008&_rdoc=1&_fmt=&_orig=search&_sort=d&view=c&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=1d2bd2d7c93c038d45d6b39935cc4d6f " target="blank">www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6W9W-4T41PHY-1&_user=10&_coverDate=10%2F31%2F2008&_rdoc=1&_fmt=&_orig=search&_sort=d&view=c&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=1d2bd2d7c93c038d45d6b39935cc4d6f </a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
