(1997) : Social intelligence and success. Don't be too clever in order to be smart In: Whiten, Andrew; Byrne, Richard W. (Hg.): Machiavellian intelligence II. Extensions and evaluations: Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, S. 86-111
Abstract: Reviews research into the success and failure of behaviors in achieving social goals and argues that social and ultimately reproductive success is mainly determined by the consequences of a behavior rather than the cognitive complexity underlying it. The importance and difficulty of learning social metarules once the procedural rules of social interaction behavior (e.g., how to lie) have been mastered is discussed and is considered to be a major force driving social intelligence. A review of empirical research into children's social success illustrates the points made and shows the diversity of children's behavioral repertoire. The need for more data, for a measure of the cognitive complexity of behavior and solutions, and for an integrative functional theory is stressed.
