Abstract in brief

  • The study investigated emotional contagion in ravens by manipulating their emotional states and observing how other ravens responded, finding evidence of negative emotional contagion when observers showed pessimism after witnessing a demonstrator in a negative state.
  • The researchers used a judgment bias paradigm to assess emotional valence, showing that ravens can match emotions based on behavioral cues, especially in negative situations, which suggests emotional state matching or contagion.
  • This research provides experimental evidence that emotional contagion occurs in birds (ravens), similar to mammals, and offers insights into how empathy might have evolved across different animal species.]
