Behavioural mimicry as an indicator of affiliation.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Previous research has shown that behavioural mimicry fosters affiliation, and can be used to infer whether people belong to the same social unit. However, we still know very little about the generalizability of these findings and the individual factors ...

A Method to Train Marmosets in Visual Working Memory Task and Their Performance
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018 Learning and memory processes are similarly organized in humans and monkeys; therefore, monkeys can be ideal models for analyzing human aging processes and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Matching based on biological categories in Orangutans (Pongo abelii) and a Gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2013 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

Electrophysiological evidence of a delay in the visual recognition process in young children
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015 The present study analyzes the development of the visual recognition processing of the relevant stimulus in a Delayed Match-To-Sample task during the matching phase. To do so, Electroencephalograms of 170 subjects between 6 and 26 years old were recorded.

EFFECT OF DELAY‐INTERVAL STIMULI ON DELAYED SYMBOLIC MATCHING TO SAMPLE IN THE PIGEON [PDF]
Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 1981 In Experiment 1, food‐deprived pigeons received delayed symbolic matching to sample training in a darkened Skinner box. Trials began with the illumination of the grain feeder lamp (no food sample), or illumination of this lamp, accompanied by the raising of the feeder tray (food sample).

The Differential Outcomes Effect in Pigeons (Columba livia): Is It Truly Anticipatory? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 We used delay-interval interference to investigate the nature of the differential outcomes effect (DOE) in pigeons. Birds were trained on a delayed matching-to-sample (DMS) task under either common outcome or differential outcome conditions, and then ...

Emotional Working Memory in Alzheimer’s Disease Patients
Dementia and Geriatric Cognitive Disorders Extra, 2011 Background: Few studies have assessed whether emotional content affects processes supporting working memory in Alzheimer disease (AD) patients. Methods: We assessed 22 AD patients and 40 elderly controls (EC) with a delayed matching and non-matching to ...

Remembering as discrimination in delayed matching to sample: Discriminability and bias [PDF]
Learning & Behavior, 2007 Task difficulty in delayed matching-to-sample tasks (DMTS) is increased by increasing the length of a retention interval. When tasks become more difficult, choice behavior becomes more susceptible to bias produced by unequal reinforcer ratios. Delaying reinforcement from choice behavior also increases both task difficulty and the biasing effect of ...
