I agree, it doesn't seem like the monkeys had prior experience seeing the robot hand or any habituation period before the testing, which could have been helpful to prevent the novelty of that robot claw thing and perhaps get a bit more at the social cognition question? Considering how much time they spent watching the robot claw (looks like they watched it for longer than they watched of the entire real-hand video), it doesn’t seem convincing to me that the lack of difference in looking time between new and old towers in the condition is an effect of social memory, or lack thereof.

Exciting to see some capuchin eye tracking though!!
