Empathy could have emerged to answer just that: an internal mechanism allowing the embodiement of emotions that ensures the efficient contagion of emotional states for the synchrony of individuals within the group. Even though understanding the actions and emotions of others is a pragmatic need of social animals, the study of empathy remained crippled through many years due to the erroneous idea of human exclusivity. The new tools brought by psychological, behavioural and neural sciences not only make it possible, but urge the redefinition of many abilities we thought until now to be exclusive to man. The present study reviews what we know so far regarding the study of empathy, and presents behavioural work towards the systematic approach to the phenomenon. With the purpose of inferring on the existence of emotional empathy in chimpanzees, presenting a method of systematic data collection and investigating further into the empathic process, the present study was carried out for the course of four months in South Africa, at Jane Goodall's Institute sanctuary, Chimp Eden. Behavioural sampling was carried out to register empathy triggers and group scans were conducted in order to obtain measures of Relationship Quality and Proximity and ascertain their possible relation to the empathic response. The present study presents results that support the existence of empathy in chimpanzees and proposes the next steps in the systematic study of the phenomenon, either in laboratory or wild conditions.Vicente, Luís A.Gaspar, AugustaRepositório da Universidade de LisboaCastro, Ana Rita de Oliveira de2010-07-28T16:13:11Z20092009-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfapplication/pdfapplication/pdftext/xmlhttp://hdl.handle.net/10451/1792enghttp://catalogo.ul.pt/F/?func=item-global&doc_library=ULB01&type=03&doc_number=000571759info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-08T15:41:45Zoai:repositorio.ul.pt:10451/1792Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T21:28:21.470527Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
