People
This project involved the collaboration of a large number of individuals - more than one hundred - working at institutions both in the United Kingdom and abroad, including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, and the United States.
The project was also highly interdisciplinary. Participants included researchers working in a variety of different disciplines including anthropology, behavioural genetics, biology, cognitive psychology, comparative (animal) psychology, developmental psychology, economics, linguistics and psycholinguistics, neuropsychology, and Philosophy.
The project gratefully acknowledges the support of all the individuals, groups, and institutions that participated in the project.
Participants are ordered alphabetically (in columns) and organised by their primary disciplinary affiliations. We emphasise that most of the project participants work in an interdisciplinary fashion.
