- 5. All of the monkeys spent the least time with the wire monkey
- 6. the monkey went over for food it kept one foot on the cloth for reassurance
- Lorenz (1935)
- Lorenz studied goslings to look at imprinting
- 1. He separated gosling eggs into 2 groups
- 2. One group were left with their mother and the other group was incubated
- 3. When the incubated eggs hatched they took to Lorenz and started following him
- 4. To test imprinting he marked the incubated gosling and put them with the other goslings and let them mix
- 5. Next Lorenz let the goslings separate again
- 6. the goslings separate into their two groups
