Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Monkeys and apes are known to learn by association, which involves making connections between cause and effect. This learning process may contribute to their ability to predict the behavior of others. While they may also be capable of deception, imitation, and natural selection, these factors are not as directly linked to their ability to predict another's behavior as associative learning.
