Domain-specific¶

Cognitive Tradeoff Hypothesis
- The Cognitive Tradeoff Hypothesis is Tetsuro Matsuzawa's proposal that human cognitive evolution involved a tradeoff between unusually strong immediate visuospatial memory and capacities associated with language, symbolic representation, chunking, and hierarchical organization.

  The abstract corroborates chimpanzees' unique immediate short-term memory and an evolutionary scenario for human cognition, but states no memory-language tradeoff.
  
  “Moreover, chimpanzees have unique immediate short‐term memory capabilities. Taken together, this paper presents a plausible evolutionary scenario for the uniquely human characteristics of cognition.”
  From the publisher's abstract.

Verification¶

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
