In Pavlovian sensitization, conditioned stimuli are said to activate response modes (e.g., feeding, sexual, or fear), which result in an increase in the response to other stimuli that activate the same response mode. Pavlovian sensitization...

In a clever adaptation of the two-cups task, a recent paper tested for reasoning by exclusion in bees. Although further work is necessary to rule out competing hypotheses, this study advances our ability to test cognitive capacities in inve...
Revisiting episodic-like memory in scrub jays: Is there more we can still learn from what-where-when caching behaviour? [0.03%]
再访灰松鸦的类似情节记忆:我们还能从关于储藏何事、何处及何时的行为中了解更多吗?

Professor Nicola Clayton is perhaps best known for her work on food-caching scrub jays. Her seminal 1998 paper, together with Anthony Dickinson, showed that scrub jays could remember what food they had cached, where and how long ago, sugges...
Cuttlefish favour their current need to hide rather than their future need for food [0.03%]

Episodic memory and future thinking are generally considered as two parts of the same mental time travelling system in vertebrates. Modern cephalopods, with their independent evolutionary lineage and their complex cognitive abilities, appea...

The perception of objects is a challenging task that requires recognizing visual elements and integrating them into a whole. While human vision prioritizes attention to the overall configuration, data from other species suggests this bias t...

A recent study demonstrated that marmoset "phee calls" include information specific to the intended receiver of the call, and that receivers respond more to calls that are specifically directed at them. The authors interpret this as showing...

A decrease in the rate of reinforcement associated with one component of a multiple schedule is typically associated with a decrease in responding in that component as well as with an increase in responding in the unchanged component. This ...

Research has examined how stimulants affect impulsive choice in delay-discounting tasks, but little is known about whether such drugs influence how discounting varies with reward magnitude. This study sought to investigate the effects of ac...

In a recent study, Johnson and Wynne found that dogs classically conditioned to associate electric shocks with chasing a fast-moving mechanical lure inhibited chasing behaviour at test, while dogs conditioned with food rewards did not learn...
