New paper @CollabraOA @ucpress In two online, child-friendly Exps, 2-year-olds mapped emotion words to face & body cues within valence. Mask exposure didn't correlate with performance. The results suggest an early ability to comprehend emotion words! doi.org/10.1525/collabra.743…

This figure represents the output of the models testing the inequity aversion and disappointment hypotheses. Bars = 95% CI, wherever 0 is included the result is nonsignificant. "Reported" on y-axis refers to species for which inequity aversion was previously reported 10/11

Overall, our meta-analysis finds no evidence that inequity aversion, a hypothesized building block of fairness, is shared with other species - suggesting that a sense of fairness is uniquely human! 11/11
