Three pigeons were trained in a successive same/different (S/D) procedure using compound auditory stimuli (pitch/timbre combinations). Using a go/no-go procedure, pigeons successfully learned to discriminate between sequences of either all ...
Between-cue associations influence searching for a hidden goal in an environment with a distinctive shape [0.03%]

In Experiment 1 rats had to escape from a kite-shaped pool by swimming to a submerged escape platform in a right-angled corner. The two walls creating this corner were white and the two walls creating the opposite, incorrect, right-angled c...
Integration of geometric with luminance information in the rat: evidence from within-compound associations [0.03%]
基于大鼠的实验：几何和亮度信息整合的证据——来自词素内联想任务的证据

In two experiments, rats first received preexposure to a rectangular arena in which the geometrically equivalent corner pairs (G1 and G2) were coincident with different luminance characteristics (C1 and C2, respectively). In Experiment 1, r...
Differential outcomes enhance accuracy of delayed matching to sample but not resistance to change [0.03%]
不同的结果可以增强延迟匹配到样本的准确性，但不能增强对变化的抵抗性

John A Nevin et al.
Three experiments assessed the relation between the differential outcomes effect and resistance to change of delayed matching-to-sample performance. Pigeons produced delayed matching-to-sample trials by responding on variable interval sched...

The empirical goals were to describe the behavior of rats trained on multiple temporal discriminations and to use these descriptions to predict behavior observed under new training conditions. The theoretical goals were to fit a quantitativ...

Pigeons' pecks produced grain under progressive ratio (PR) schedules, whose response requirements increased systematically within sessions. Experiment 1 compared arithmetic (AP) and geometric (GP) progressions. Response rates increased as a...
Chimpanzees solve the trap problem when the confound of tool-use is removed [0.03%]

The trap-tube problem is difficult for chimpanzees to solve; in several studies only 1 to 2 subjects learn the solution. The authors tested eight chimpanzees on a non-tool-using version of the problem to investigate whether the inclusion of...

The present study was designed to help bridge the methodological gap between human and nonhuman animal research in delay-based risky choice. In Part 1, 4 adult human subjects made repeated choices between variable-time and fixed-time schedu...
Competition between multiple causes of a single outcome in causal reasoning [0.03%]
因果推理中单一结果的多个原因之间的竞争关系

Christine Darredeau et al.
A strong positive predictor of an outcome modulates the causal judgments of a moderate predictor. To study the empirical basis of this modulation, we compared treatments with one and with two strong competing (i.e., modulating) causes. This...

Two groups of rats were trained for 50 days on different discriminations in a magazine approach paradigm. One group was trained with a negative patterning schedule and a positive patterning schedule concurrently: they received intermixed tr...
