Matching based on biological categories in Orangutans (Pongo abelii) and a Gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) [PDF]
Following a series of experiments in which six orangutans and one gorilla discriminated photographs of different animal species in a two-choice touch screen procedure, Vonk & MacDonald (2002) and Vonk & MacDonald (2004) concluded that orangutans, but not

Single-Subject Withdrawal Designs in Delayed Matching-to-Sample Procedures [PDF]
In most studies of delayed matching-to-sample (DMTS) and stimulus equivalence, the delay has remained fixed throughout a single experimental condition. We wanted to expand on the DMTS and stimulus equivalence literature by examining the effects of using titrating delays with different starting points during the establishment of conditional ...

CANTAB delayed matching to sample task performance in juvenile baboons. [PDF]
This study reports the administration of the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery system's delayed matching to sample (DMTS) task to juvenile baboons. Nine subjects (female=5, male=4) were trained with delay intervals ranging from 0 to 80s.

Reversing the signaled magnitude effect in delayed matching to sample: delay-specific remembering. [PDF]
Pigeons performed a delayed matching‐to‐sample task in which large or small reinforcers for correct remembering were signaled during the retention interval. Accuracy was low when small reinforcers were signaled, and high when large reinforcers were signaled (the signaled magnitude effect).

On the development and mechanics of delayed matching-to-sample performance. [PDF]
Despite its frequent use to assess effects of environmental and pharmacological variables on short-term memory, little is known about the development of delayed matching-to-sample (DMTS) performance. This study was designed to examine the dimensions and dynamics of DMTS performance development over a long period of exposure to provide a more secure ...

Scopolamine impairs auditory delayed matching-to-sample performance in monkeys. [PDF]
Information concerning the major neurotransmitters critical for auditory memory is sparse. One possibility is the cholinergic system, important for performance in some tasks requiring visual short-term memory and attention [T.G. Aigner, M. Mishkin, The effects of physostigmine and scopolamine on recognition memory in monkeys, Behav. Neural. Biol.

Disruption of delayed matching to sample [PDF]
Two pigeons were exposed to a 3-sec delayed matching-to-sample (DMTS) procedure. Following acquisition, reinforcement for sample responding was presented during the delay interval. After baseline recovery, a blackout procedure was instituted during the delay interval. Both procedures reduced the accuracy of responding on the DMTS task.

Background Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is related to working memory impairment. Since patients with OCD have difficulty controlling their obsessive thoughts, removal of irrelevant information might be important in the pathophysiology of OCD ...

TITRATING‐DELAY MATCHING‐TO‐SAMPLE IN THE PIGEON [PDF]
The titrating‐delay matching‐to‐sample (TDMTS) procedure offers researchers an additional behavioral task thought to capture some important features of remembering. In this procedure, the delay between sample offset and comparison onset adjusts as a function of the subject's performance.

A delay-specific differential outcomes effect in delayed matching to sample [PDF]
In delay-specific remembering, accuracy in delayed matching-to-sample tasks is enhanced after single delays or retention intervals relative to performance at other delays. In the differential-outcomes effect (DOE), accuracy is enhanced at all delays when the outcomes of correct choices are quantitatively or qualitatively different, compared to when ...
