    Superstition: a matter of bias, not detectability (1978)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1978-01-06
    Description: Pigeons discriminated between stimulus changes dependent on their pecking and stimulus changes occurring independently of their behavior. Their performance was accurate, and when the payoffs for "hits" and "correct rejections" were varied, their response bias varied in a fashion similar to that of human observers detecting signals in a background of noise.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Killeen, P R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Jan 6;199(4324):88-90.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Psychology, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ 85281, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17569494" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Japanese quail can learn phonetic categories (1987)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1987-09-04
    Description: Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix) learned a category for syllable-initial [d] followed by a dozen different vowels. After learning to categorize syllables consisting of [d], [b], or [g] followed by four different vowels, quail correctly categorized syllables in which the same consonants preceded eight novel vowels. Acoustic analysis of the categorized syllables revealed no single feature or pattern of features that could support generalization, suggesting that the quail adopted a more complex mapping of stimuli into categories. These results challenge theories of speech sound classification that posit uniquely human capacities.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kluender, K R -- Diehl, R L -- Killeen, P R -- HD-18060/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- MH-39940/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1987 Sep 4;237(4819):1195-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3629235" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Differential learning and memory by co-occurring ant species (1994)
    Springer
    Insectes sociaux 41 (1994), S. 165-177 
    Details
    ISSN: 1420-9098
    Keywords: environmental variability ; learning ; memory ; seed-harvester ants ; Sonoran Desert
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Foragers of the antsMessor pergandei andPogonomyrmex rugosus experience differing levels of variability in the distribution of seeds they harvest due to species-specific differences in foraging behavior.Messor pergandei foragers experience more variable seed distributions and densities, learn to recognize a novel seed faster but forget this information faster thanP. rugosus, which experiences more constant seed distributions even in the same habitat. Rate of learning to recognize a novel seed species was negatively associated with measures of seed species diversity for both ants.Messor pergandei foragers respond to variation in seed density by varying number of seeds handled per seed harvested, whileP. rugosus foragers do not. Memory of a novel seed exceeds forager longevity, due perhaps to use of seed caches as a type of information center.
