Predisposed visual memory of shapes in quail chicks.
Newly hatched chicks will spontaneously peck at conspicuous objects in their field of view, and soon learn to distinguish between edible food particles and unpleasant tasting objects. To examine whether the selective pecking is based on the ability to memorize shapes, we analyzed pecking behavior of 1- to 2-days-old quail chicks (Coturnix japonica) by using ball- and triangle-shaped beads both ...
متن کاملvisual memory of meaningless shapes in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorders.
visual memory is an important cognitive ability, which has been studied in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (asds). in such studies meaningful shapes were used more frequently. since meaningless shapes provide a better assessment of short term visual memory, in this study we used them to evaluate visual memory in children and adolescents with asds compared to the normal group.four vis...
متن کاملVisual working memory for amplitude-modulated shapes.
We investigated the trade-off between capacity and precision in visual working memory with two different tasks: delayed discrimination and recall. The stimuli were radial frequency patterns that require global pooling of local visual features. The thresholds in delayed amplitude discrimination were measured with a two-interval, forced-choice setup using the Quest procedure. In the recall experi...
متن کاملAdaptability of Japanese quail chicks to conditions of simulated weightlessness.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the adaptability of young Japanese quail chicks to the simulated weightlessness, represented by hypodynamy. Unsexed hatchlings were subjected to hypodynamy on either the first, second or third day of age and reared under these conditions to 21 days of age. During this period, the control quail chicks were housed in a floor box. The effect of hypodynam...
متن کاملOcular pursuit and visual memory of moving shapes.
This paper deals with visual memory of moving shapes. During a visual recognition task, shapes moved on a computer screen, at a constant speed, and in a direction that was either similar, orthogonal or opposite to the direction of motion during learning. Results showed that correct response rate varies according to oculomotor factors: (1) the motor skill of ocular pursuit during learning and (2...
