Answer:
"...in light of Darwin’s principle of evolutionary continuity, we urge abandonment of the anthropocentric view that only big-brained creatures, such as great apes, elephants and cetaceans have sufficient mental capacities for the most complex degree of self-cognizance: self-consciousness. We hope the current conventional wisdom that only a few species are self-conscious will become a historical curiosity and that, in its place, will arise an empirical understanding of where the minds of various social vertebrates and invertebrates lie on a continuum of self-cognizance." (Marc Bekoff and Paul Sherman, "Reflections on animal selves."
Explanation:
A recent essay entitled "The Why of Me," written by University of Oxford graduate student Sofia Deleniv in New Scientist magazine, is a must read for people interested in what nonhuman animals (animals) might know about themselves and how self-aware they really are. The online version of Ms. Deleniv's insightful essay is called "The ‘Me’ Illusion: How Your Brain Conjures Up Your Sense of Self" and is only available to subscribers, so below I've included a few snippets to whet your appetite for more. An introductory leader titled "We’re Not Unique – Lots of Species Can Recognize Themselves" (also in New Scientist) lays out some of her thoughtful arguments. The subtitle for the leader reads, "We should be open to the idea that human intelligence isn't as special as we like to think it is," a point with which I wholeheartedly agree. While we are unique and exceptional in various ways, so too are other animals.
I've been thinking about the general topic of self-awareness in animals for a long time, and Deleniv's piece motivated me to revisit a number of issues centering on how we study self-awareness in nonhumans, what different sorts of data mean, the robustness of data collected in what's called "the mirror test," and arguments about why a sense of self has clearly evolved in diverse nonhumans. A recent discovery that a fish called the cleaner wrasse has passed the "mirror test," one of the standard ways in which researchers study self-awareness in other animals, shows that we need to keep an open mind about the taxonomic distribution of different sorts of self-cognizance (for more discussion of the fish study, please see "Is This Fish Self-Aware?" And, for more on the general topic of self-awareness in other animals, please see the essay written by Paul Sherman I, "Reflections on Animal Selves").
For the purpose of this essay, I'm using the phrase "self-awareness" to refer to "self-recognition" or "self-consciousness" to make the discussion less cumbersome. Dr. Sherman and I used the phrase "self cognizance" to call attention to the different perspective for which we were arguing. In essence, we used "self-cognizance' as an umbrella term to cover the continuum from 'self-referencing' to 'self-awareness' to 'self-consciousness.'" We also considered the limitations of the mirror test. Basically, when researchers use the mirror test, they "place a visual marking on an animal’s body, usually with scentless paints, dyes, or stickers. They then observe what happens when the marked animal is placed in front of a mirror. The researchers compare the animal’s reaction to other times when the animal saw itself in the mirror without any markings on its body."
