The article Whose Life Would You Save suggests that like humans, some species of monkeys appear to have a sense of fairness.

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The statement being evaluated is: 'The article Whose Life Would You Save suggests that like humans, some species of monkeys appear to have a sense of fairness.'
Option 1: True. This aligns with the article's argument that certain primate experiments and observations indicate fairness considerations, such as unequal reward scenarios where monkeys resist unequal outcomes or prefer equitable shares, suggesting a proto-sense of fairness similar to humans.
Option 2: False. Choosing this would imply the article denies any sense of fairness in monkeys, which contradicts the described findings of fairness-related behaviors in some monkey species observed in the literature and described in the article.
To differentiate, consider what 'sense of fairness' would entail: reactions to unequal payoffs, willingness to cooperate, and preference for reciprocity—all behaviors noted in primate studies referenced by the article. The claim that such behaviors are present supports the True option, whereas asserting there is no such sense would contradict those documented observations. Consequently, the False option rests on an inaccurate interpretation of the article's content, since the described fairness-like responses are indeed reported.
