Segregated interactions in urban and online space by Dong, Xiaowen, Morales, Alfredo J., Jahani, Eaman, Moro, Esteban, Lepri, Bruno, Bozkaya, Burcin, Sarraute, Carlos, Bar-Yam, Yaneer, Pentland, Alex

“…Furthermore, we find that segregation increases with difference in socio-economic status but is asymmetric for purchase activity, i.e., the amount of interaction from poorer to wealthier neighborhoods is larger than vice versa. Our results provide novel insights into the understanding of behavioral segregation in human interactions with significant socio-political and economic implications.…”

Mechanical problem solving by plush-crested jays: are tools special after all? by Lois-Milevicich, J, Rat-Fischer, L, de la Colina, MA, Gómez, RO, Reboreda, JC, Kacelnik, A

“…This association, however, is not known to be causally determinant of tool-related competence since flexibility and innovativeness are often observed in the absence of tool use and vice versa. For this reason, it is interesting to explore whether animals that can be loosely categorized as outstanding, or ‘intelligent’ physical problem solvers, are also remarkable using tools innovatively, rather than tool use presenting special constraints. …”
