Like many other species, dogs have a natural quantity judgment system to assist with decision making to maximize resources. Additionally, dogs are highly sensitive to, and influenced by, human-delivered ostensive (i.e., social) cues. Here, ...
Implementation of automated cognitive testing systems for socially housed rhesus (Macaca mulatta) and squirrel (Saimiri spp.) monkeys: Age differences in learning [0.03%]
社会圈养的猕猴(Macaca mulatta)和松鼠猴(Saimiri spp.)自动化认知测试系统的实现:学习能力的年龄差异

Utilizing Automated Cognitive Testing Systems (ACTS) with group-housed nonhuman primates offers a number of advantages over manual testing and computerized testing of singly housed subjects. To date, ACTS usage has been limited to great ape...
Together again but no need to play: Dissociating effects of isolation and separation on social interaction in female rats (Rattus norvegicus) [0.03%]
隔离和分离对挪威大鼠社交行为的解离作用

Play behavior has been extensively studied across species, but its direct role in social relationships remains unclear. Here we use an "isolation versus separation" protocol to identify behaviors associated with relationship renewal in adol...
Pigeons' (Columba livia) intertemporal choice in binary-choice and patch-leaving contexts [0.03%]
家鸽(Columba livia)在二择和放弃觅食地情境下的跨期选择行为研究

Typical approaches to study self-control present subjects with a simultaneous choice between a larger-later (LL) reinforcer and a smaller-sooner (SS) reinforcer. In contrast, in patch-leaving tasks, subjects choose between staying at a patc...

Comments on an article by Jay W. Schwartz , Kayleigh H. Pierson, and Alexander K. Reece (see record 2024-19488-001). In this issue, Schwartz et al. (2024) tackle the pitch rule in humans by testing to what extent we use pitch alone to judge...
Differences in paradoxical choice between pigeons (Columba livia) and rats (Rattus norvegicus): The problem of cue trackability [0.03%]

Organisms are believed to attempt to maximize their net energy intake while foraging. The paradoxical choice task shows that they may instead prefer to obtain information rather than primary reward when the outcome is uncertain. That is, th...

The ephemeral reward task involves providing subjects with a choice between two distinctive stimuli, A and B, each containing an identical reward. If A is chosen, the reward associated with A is obtained and the trial is over. If B is chose...

Neophilia is a measure of individuals' attraction to novelty and is thought to provide important fitness benefits related to the acquisition of information and the ability to solve novel problems. Although neophilia is thought to vary acros...
No evidence of attentional bias toward threatening conspecific and allospecific faces in capuchin monkeys (Sapajus [Cebus] apella) using a dot-probe task [0.03%]

The ability to quickly perceive and interpret threatening facial expressions from others is critical for successfully maintaining group cohesion in social nonhuman primate species. Rapid detection of threatening or negative stimuli in the e...
Using isochrony, but not meter, to discriminate rhythmic sequences in rats (Rattus norvegicus) [0.03%]
利用等时性而非节律鉴别大鼠(褐家鼠)的节奏序列
Ferran Mayayo,Juan M Toro
Ferran Mayayo
Meter induction is a key process for rhythm perception. However, while some nonhuman animals readily detect temporal regularities and perceive beats in auditory sequences, there is no consistent evidence that they extract metrical structure...
