Canon de Morgan
- Canon de Morgan
-
Le canon de Morgan est un principe énoncé par Lloyd Morgan en 1894 :
« Nous ne devons en aucun cas interpréter une action comme relevant de l'exercice de facultés de haut niveau, si celle-ci peut être interprétée comme relevant de l'exercice de facultés de niveau inférieur[trad 1],[1]. »
Il concerne l'analyse comportementale animale et s'oppose au principe de charité qui s'applique aux humains.
