Visual and acoustic exploratory behaviors toward novel stimuli in Antillean manatees (Trichechus manatus manatus) under human care [0.03%]
人工饲养下海牛属动物对新刺激的视觉和听觉探究行为
Aviva Charles,Yann Henaut,Michel Saint-Jalme et al.
Aviva Charles et al.
Exploratory behaviors describe the actions performed by an animal to obtain information on an object, environment, or individual by using its different senses. Exploration is described in some marine mammals, but not yet in manatees. Our st...
Do standard behavioral assays predict foraging behavior of individual Black-capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus) in response to a predator model or calls? [0.03%]
个体黑顶 Chickadee(Poecile atricapillus)的标准行为测定能否预测其对捕食者模型或叫声的觅食行为?

Jodilyn R Jenkins et al.
Black-capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus) and other species that feed at bird feeders balance the benefit of easy foraging with the added risk of predation. Individual birds respond differently to risky situations, and these difference...
Pitch affects human (Homo sapiens) perception of emotional arousal from diverse animal calls [0.03%]
音高影响人类(智人)从各种动物叫声中感知情绪唤醒度
Jay W Schwartz,Kayleigh H Pierson,Alexander K Reece
Jay W Schwartz
A growing body of research demonstrates that humans can accurately perceive the emotional states of animals solely by listening to their calls, highlighting shared evolutionary ancestry. Yet, the cognitive and perceptual mechanisms underlyi...
Humans' (Homo sapiens), capuchin monkeys' (Sapajus [Cebus] apella), and rhesus macaques' (Macaca mulatta) size judgments shift when stimuli change in frequency [0.03%]
当刺激物在频率上发生变化时,人类(智人)、卷尾猴和恒河猴的大小判断会发生改变
Sierra M V Simmons,Sarah F Brosnan
Sierra M V Simmons
When making decisions, humans often strive to uphold objective, absolute standards, such as about what is small versus large, blue versus purple, or unfair versus fair, suggesting that our judgments should not be swayed by extraneous factor...
The effects of goal-landmark distance on overshadowing: A replication in humans (Homo sapiens) of Goodyear and Kamil (2004) [0.03%]
目标路标距离对信息遮蔽效应的影响:灵长类动物中关于Goodyear和Kamil(2004)的研究的重复实验研究
Estibaliz Herrera,Joe M Austen,Gonzalo P Urcelay
Estibaliz Herrera
Goodyear and Kamil (2004) assessed the ability of Clark's nutcrackers to find buried food based on a cross-shaped array of landmarks at different distances from the goal. Their findings suggested that proximal landmarks overshadowed learnin...
Anthropomorphism as a contributor to the success of human (Homo sapiens) tool use [0.03%]
拟人化对人类(Homo sapiens)工具使用成功的影响
Michael Haslam
Michael Haslam
Humans anthropomorphize: as a result of our evolved ultrasociality, we see the world through person-colored glasses. In this review, I suggest that an interesting proportion of the extraordinary tool-using abilities shown by humans results ...
Responses of wild skuas (Catharacta antarctica ssp. lonnbergi) to human cues in cooperative and competitive social contexts [0.03%]
社交合作和竞争情境下鹱燕鸥对人类行为的反应
Samara Danel,Nancy Rebout,Laura Pinto et al.
Samara Danel et al.
Many animals respond to and use social cues emitted by other species (e.g., head direction). In the context of human-animal communication, these capacities have been attributed to regular and longstanding exposure to humans. We presented wi...
Influence of group size on shelter choice in Blaptica dubia cockroaches [0.03%]
集群大小对Blaptica dubia蟑螂避难所选择的影响
Todd M Freeberg,Sylvain Fiset
Todd M Freeberg
Individuals in social groups can gain benefits from being in those groups, including an increased ability to find food and avoid predators. We tested for potential group benefits in shelter choice in the Argentinian wood roach, Blaptica dub...
What enables "distraction" to reduce delay discounting for pigeons (Columba livia) [0.03%]
distracting分心如何影响鸽子的时间贴现行为
Peyton M Mueller,Daniel N Peng,Thomas R Zentall
Peyton M Mueller
In a successive delay-discounting task, a small reward can be obtained immediately but a larger reward can be obtained if one waits. There is evidence that the larger reward can be obtained more easily if one is "distracted" from obtaining ...
Why do distractions sometimes aid self-control? Pigeons (Columba livia) highlight possible mechanisms underlying the distraction effect [0.03%]
为什么有时候注意力分散有助于自我控制?岩鸽(Columba livia)可能揭示了注意力分散效应的潜在机制
Michael J Beran
Michael J Beran
In this essay, the author explores the question of why distractions sometimes aid self-control. In a study with chimpanzees, Evans and Beran (2007) used two conditions with toys to address the possibility raised by Mueller et al. (2023) abo...
