Social Learning Strategies: Bridge-building between fields (2018)
Journal Article
Kendal, R., Boogert, N., Rendell, L., Laland, K., Webster, M., & Jones, P. (2018). Social Learning Strategies: Bridge-building between fields. Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 22(7), 651-665. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tics.2018.04.003

While social learning is widespread, indiscriminate copying of others is rarely beneficial. Theory suggests that individuals should be selective in what, when, and whom they copy, by following ‘social learning strategies’ (SLSs). The SLS concept has...

Reliability of repeated arm-crank cardiopulmonary exercise tests in patients with small abdominal aortic aneurysm (2018)
Journal Article
Durrand, J., Wagstaff, K., Kasim, A., Cawthorn, L., Danjoux, G., & Kothmann, E. (2018). Reliability of repeated arm-crank cardiopulmonary exercise tests in patients with small abdominal aortic aneurysm. Anaesthesia: Peri-operative medicine, critical care and pain, 73(8), 967-971. https://doi.org/10.1111/anae.14312

Arm‐crank ergometry may be useful in patients unable to pedal, for instance due to peripheral arterial disease. Twenty participants with small abdominal aortic aneurysm undertook two serial arm‐crank tests and then a pedal test, four of whom had inde...

Experimental Butchery Study Investigating the Influence of Timing of Access and Butcher Expertise on Cut Mark Variables (2018)
Journal Article
Pobiner, B., Higson, C., Kovarovic, K., Kaplan, R., Rogers, J., & Schindler, W. (2018). Experimental Butchery Study Investigating the Influence of Timing of Access and Butcher Expertise on Cut Mark Variables. International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, 28(4), 377-387. https://doi.org/10.1002/oa.2661

Cut marks on fossils from Plio‐Pleistocene faunal assemblages can elucidate the timing and nature of hominin procurement of animal tissues. While butchery experiments have great potential to enhance our ability to understand hominin butchery behavior...

Mobility, transport and older people’s well being in sub-Saharan Africa: review and prospect (2018)
Book Chapter
Porter, G., Tewodros, A., & Gorman, M. (2018). Mobility, transport and older people’s well being in sub-Saharan Africa: review and prospect. In A. Curl, & C. Musselwhite (Eds.), Geographies of transport and ageing (75-100). Palgrave Macmillan. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-76360-6_4

This chapter presents a review of the very limited research on older people’s mobility and transport needs in urban and rural contexts across Anglophone countries in sub-Saharan Africa. This is followed by reflections on recent mixed-methods research... Read More about Mobility, transport and older people’s well being in sub-Saharan Africa: review and prospect.

How Conservation Matters: ethnographic explorations of historic building renovation (2018)
Journal Article
Yarrow, T. (2019). How Conservation Matters: ethnographic explorations of historic building renovation. Journal of Material Culture, 24(1), 3-21. https://doi.org/10.1177/1359183518769111

This article focuses on ideas of historic conservation, examining the multiple ways in which these are made to matter through practices of renovation. Bypassing normatively inflected literatures on heritage, the author adopts a more ‘agnostic’ ethnog...

The shared evolutionary histories and anatomical similarities between humans and non-human primates create dynamic interconnections between these alloprimates. In this foreword to Folia Primatologica's special issue on “Ethnographic Approaches in Pri... Read More about Ethnographic Approaches in Primatology.

On the rocks: using discourse analysis to examine relationships between Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus) and people on Gibraltar (2018)
Journal Article
Radford, L., Alexander, S., & Waters, S. (2018). On the rocks: using discourse analysis to examine relationships between Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus) and people on Gibraltar. Folia Primatologica, 89(1), 30-44. https://doi.org/10.1159/000485125

Primates are difficult to categorise due to some of the human-like characteristics they possess. Here, we examine the complexities that exist in a commensal relationship between an introduced population of Barbary macaques and local human populations...
