Pharmaceuticals, 2021 Cognitive flexibility refers to the ability to modify learned behavior in response to changes in the environment. In laboratory rodents, cognitive flexibility can be assessed in reversal learning, i.e., the change of contingencies, for example in T-maze ...

Developmental Differences in Probabilistic Reversal Learning: A Computational Modeling Approach
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Cognitive flexibility helps us to navigate through our ever-changing environment and has often been examined by reversal learning paradigms. Performance in reversal learning can be modeled using computational modeling which allows for the specification ...

Learning and motor inhibitory control in crows and domestic chickens
Royal Society Open Science, 2021 Cognitive abilities allow animals to navigate through complex, fluctuating environments. In the present study, we tested the performance of a captive group of eight crows, Corvus corone and 10 domestic chickens, Gallus gallus domesticus, in the cylinder ...

Basic reversal-learning capacity in flies suggests rudiments of complex cognition. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The most basic models of learning are reinforcement learning models (for instance, classical and operant conditioning) that posit a constant learning rate; however many animals change their learning rates with experience.

Kea (Nestor notabilis) show flexibility and individuality in within-session reversal learning tasks
Animal Cognition, 2021 The midsession reversal paradigm confronts an animal with a two-choice discrimination task where the reward contingencies are reversed at the midpoint of the session.

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022 BackgroundAlcohol use disorder is characterized by perseverative alcohol use despite negative consequences. This hallmark feature of addiction potentially relates to impairments in behavioral flexibility, which can be measured by probabilistic reversal ...

eLife, 2022 Recent data suggest that interactions between systems involved in higher order knowledge and associative learning drive responses during value-based learning. However, it is unknown how these systems impact subjective responses, such as pain.

The role of oxytocin in delay of gratification and flexibility in non-social decision making
eLife, 2021 Oxytocin is well-known for its impact on social cognition. This specificity for the social domain, however, has been challenged by findings suggesting a domain-general allostatic function for oxytocin by promoting future-oriented and flexible behavior ...

Reversal learning in ant colonies
International Journal of Comparative Psychology, 2023 AbstractReversal learning has been studied in many species, often as an indicator of their behavioral flexibility. Although this research typically focuses on individuals, groups of social animals, especially social insects, are often considered to have similar learning capabilities.

Goats (Capra hircus) From Different Selection Lines Differ in Their Behavioural Flexibility
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 Given that domestication provided animals with more stable environmental conditions, artificial selection by humans has likely affected animals' ability to learn novel contingencies and their ability to adapt to changing environments.
