Drinking Solution

The present study investigated the role of sympathetic innervation of the spleen in conditioned suppression of a contact hypersensitivity (CHS) reaction. Behavioral conditioning was achieved by pairing saccharin drinking solution (conditioned stimulus, CS) with injection of cyclosporin A (CsA, 20 mg/kg; unconditioned stimulus, UCS). Four days after sensitization of the animals by application of a 5% 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) to abdominal skin, the animals were challenged by applying a 1% DNCB solution to the ear. The CHS response was monitored by measuring the degree of ear swelling. Saccharin re-presentation reduced ear swelling to a magnitude that approached that achieved by CsA treatment. Histological examination demonstrated that the conditioned reduction of ear swelling was produced by a reduced leukocyte infiltration of the ear. Prior sympathetic denervation of the spleen did not alter the conditioned suppression of the CHS response. These data indicate that behavioral conditioning using CsA produces alterations of CHS that, unlike conditioned prolongation of heart allograft survival, are independent of sympathetically regulated conditioned alterations in the spleen.

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.

Sense Of Obligation

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.

Abstract The authors do the field of cultural evolution a service by exploring the role of non-social cognition in human cumulative technological culture, truly neglected in comparison with socio-cognitive abilities frequently assumed to be the primary drivers. Some specifics of their delineation of the critical factors are problematic, however. I highlight recent chimpanzee–human comparative findings that should help refine such analyses.
