Our presentation went very well. Although a little bit stressed, we were all prepared and did our best. This week is the deadline for the last piece of a group work. We need to create a wiki page and write an essay about inequality aversion in animals. We looked at several articles regarding dogs, chimpanzees and other animals. Our findings are quite interesting, however I am not going to write about them now as the wiki page is not finished yet-as soon as we will finish I'll copy link to our page so that who ever is interested, could see it.
The focus of my part of the essay is on chimpanzees. My work will be mostly based on the paper "Chimpanzees Are Rational Maximizers in an Ultimatum Game" by K. Jensen, J. Call and M. Tomasello. The key findings from the experiments that they conduct on chimpanzees as humans' closest relatives are not sensitive to fairness. Also that they are rational maximizers.
