TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that initially in ontogeny vision is functionally dominant, strengthening the case against the traditional argument that "touch teaches vision" in ontogenesis, a finding that was later challenged by the functional dominance of touch.
Abstract: Traditionally it has been taught that “touch teaches vision” in ontogeny. Recent experiments have shown that in judgment situations vision dominates touch, a finding that has been taken to weaken the traditional argument. The force of the finding is vitiated to some extent by the functional dominance of touch. Developmental experiments show that initially in ontogeny vision is functionally dominant, strengthening the case against the traditional argument.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of familiar and unfamiliar environments on children's behavior were evaluated in terms of their proximity to mother and dominance in two experimental sessions with 20 pairs of normal children, age 15 to 36 months.
TL;DR: Within 22 groups of four rats, raised together from weaning, dominance orders were determined daily on the basis of each group member’s ratio of wins to losses in spontaneous dominance encounters, finding no relationship between social rank and adult propensity to show interspecies aggression.
Abstract: Within 22 groups of four rats, raised together from weaning, dominance orders were determined daily on the basis of each group member’s ratio of wins to losses in spontaneous dominance encounters. No relationship was found between social rank in such intraspecies aggressive encounters and adult propensity to show interspecies aggression (mouse killing).
TL;DR: Results suggested that children with reading disabilities had significantly different patterns of psycholinguistic functioning in auditory vocal, visual motor, vocal encoding, and motor encoding activities.
Abstract: This study examined contrasting patterns of psycholinguistic functioning among normal children and children with reading disabilities. In general, results suggested that children with reading disabilities had significantly different patterns of psycholinguistic functioning in auditory vocal, visual motor, vocal encoding, and motor encoding activities.
TL;DR: A technique of examining eye dominance in rhesus monkey was developed and left-eye dominance was demonstrated in this S, who also preferred to use its left hand when working a lever.
Abstract: A technique of examining eye dominance in rhesus monkey was developed. One S was tested in binocular viewing conditions which were conflicting due to the method of previous training. Left-eye domin...
TL;DR: Utilizing the basic assumptions of a stochastic model of dominance frequently encountered in the literature, but generally untested on human groups, the research reported here develops a models of dominance that works on both the horizontal and the vertical.

TL;DR: It was concluded that epinephrine and nor-epinephrine may have differential effects on social dominance behavior, with the greatest amount of dominance behavior being shown undernor-epinphrine and the greatest submissive behavior under epine dopamine.
Abstract: Effects of epinephrine and nor-epinephrine on social dominance behavior in 24 male C57BL/6J mice were investigated. The social dominance hierarchy was created by placing pairs of Ss in a linear maze. The only way S could get to the goal box was by pushing the opposing S out. The dominant S pushed the submissive S out of the maze. After the dominance hierarchy was established, each S was placed in the dominance situation under each of the drug conditions, epinephrine and nor-epinephrine. The results showed that all conditions were significantly different from each other, with the greatest amount of dominance behavior being shown under nor-epinephrine and the greatest submissive behavior under epinephrine. It was concluded that epinephrine and nor-epinephrine may have differential effects on social dominance behavior.

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of seven portraits of social scientists and a definition of the concept of social dominance were evaluated by a group of college freshmen, with significantly greater agreement among Ss on ranking portraits under the dominance criterion; also, submissiveness was defined less accurately.
Abstract: Seventy-four freshmen were asked to judge the concept of social dominance (or social submissiveness) by ranking a set of seven portraits of social scientists and by giving a definition of the concept. Results indicated significantly greater agreement among Ss on ranking portraits under the dominance criterion; also, submissiveness was defined less accurately, suggesting that this concept is not merely a reciprocal version of dominance.
