eng Abstract:
This thesis is focused on the stable individual behavioural tendencies, i.e. personality, in non-human primates. The studies included in the thesis address questions related to the methods of personality assessment and evolutionary bases of personality. The personality structures in three callitrichid species in captivity, including common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus), cotton-top tamarins (Saguinus oedipus), and golden-handed tamarins (Saguinus midas), were investigated using common behaviour coding and trait rating. More specifically, the minimum length of observation necessary to describe the personality structure, the similarities and differences between personality structures of two related tamarin and one more distantly related marmoset species, and the links between personality and reproductive success, were investigated.
