How do ants resolve conflicts between different sets of navigational cues during navigation? When two cue sets point to diametrically opposite directions, theories predict that animals should pick one set of cues or the other. Here we teste...

In a long operant chamber, pigeons were trained to discriminate between 4-s and 12-s samples in a symbolic matching-to-sample task. Subsequently, delay and no-sample test trials were introduced. The location in the chamber in which the tria...
The opportunity to compare similar stimuli can reduce the effectiveness of features they hold in common [0.03%]

In three experiments, rats were given experience of flavored solutions AX and BX, where A and B represent distinctive flavors and X a flavor common to both solutions. In one condition, AX and BX were presented on the same trial separated by...

Inhibitory stimuli are slow to acquire excitatory properties when paired with the outcome in a retardation test. However, this pattern is also seen after simple nonreinforced exposure: latent inhibition. It is commonly assumed that retardat...
Temporal encoding: Relative and absolute representations of time guide behavior [0.03%]

Temporal information-processing is critical for adaptive behavior and goal-directed action. It is thus crucial to understand how the temporal distance between behaviorally relevant events is encoded to guide behavior. However, research on t...

The perception of temporal order can help infer the causal structure of the world. By investigating the perceptual signatures of audiovisual temporal order in rats, we demonstrate the importance of the protocol design for reliable order pro...
Flexible control of Pavlovian-instrumental transfer based on expected reward value [0.03%]
基于预期奖赏价值的 pavlovian-操作性转移的灵活控制

Andrew T Marshall et al.
The Pavlovian-instrumental transfer (PIT) paradigm is widely used to assay the motivational influence of reward-predictive cues, reflected by their ability to invigorate instrumental behavior. Leading theories assume that a cue's motivation...
Pigeons discount continuously changing perspective during action recognition [0.03%]
在行为识别过程中，鸽子会连续调整视角权重

An important challenge for animal and artificial visual systems is separating the system's own motions from the movements of other animals or events. To examine this issue in birds, we conducted three experiments testing four pigeons in a g...
Inhibition in discriminated operant learning: Tests of response-specificity after feature-negative and extinction learning [0.03%]
辨别操作性学习中的抑制作用：特征消解学习和消退学习后反应特异性的测试

Six experiments with rats examined the nature of inhibition learned in an operant feature-negative (FN) discrimination. The results of prior experiments that examined instrumental extinction rather than FN learning suggest that inhibition c...
Response-independent outcome presentations weaken the instrumental response-outcome association [0.03%]
与反应无关的结果呈现削弱了行为反应与结果之间的关联性

The present article explored the fate of previously formed response-outcome associations when the relation between R and O was disrupted by arranging for O to occur independently of R. In each of three experiments response independent outco...
