title: Does 'Relationship Intelligence' Make Big Brains in Birds?
abstract: Lately, Emery et al. developed a bird-specific modification of the "social brain hypothesis", termed "relationship intelligence hypothesis". Although the idea may be valuable, we doubt that it is supported by sufficient evidence and critically discuss some of the arguments raised by the authors in favour of their new idea.
