Stimulus-Response-Outcome Coding in the Pigeon Nidopallium Caudolaterale
A prerequisite for adaptive goal-directed behavior is that animals constantly evaluate action outcomes and relate them to both their antecedent behavior and to stimuli predictive of reward or non-reward. Here, we investigate whether single neurons in the avian nidopallium caudolaterale (NCL), a multimodal associative forebrain structure and a presumed analogue of mammalian prefrontal cortex, re...
متن کاملStimulus salience and asymmetric forgetting in the pigeon.
Pigeons were trained using a symbolic delayed matching-to-sample procedure involving bright versus dim houselight samples. We hypothesized that when sample stimuli differ in salience, increasing the size of the retention interval will affect performance on trials initiated by the more salient sample only. In agreement with this prediction, accuracy following the dim sample did not decline as th...
متن کاملthe most important demotivating factors among efl teachers in private english language institutes in mashhad
just as motivation is important in sla research, demotivation constitutes an important factor, too. there are many studies done on demotivation and burnout of teachers. many of these studies have been conducted on one or two aspects of english instruction. consequently, there are few studies which have been done on more than two aspects of english teaching. the aim of this study is to find out ...
Pigeon same-different concept learning with multiple stimulus classes.
Two experiments examined the acquisition and transfer of a complex same-different discrimination by pigeons. With the use of a 2-alternative choice task, 5 pigeons were reinforced for discriminating odd-item Different displays in which a contrasting target ws present, from Same displays, in which all elements were identical. Four different types of same-different displays were concurrently test...
متن کاملVisual neurons in the pigeon brain encode the acceleration of stimulus motion.
Seeing target motion is a vital capability of the visual system in humans and animals. Physically, motion is described by its acceleration, speed, and direction. Motion-sensitive neurons in all the visual areas examined to date are selective for the direction and speed of motion. Here, we show by single-unit recording that one-third of motion-sensitive neurons in the pigeon's pretectal nucleus ...
