Abstract

This paper proposes an experimental protocol allowing Gryllus pennsylvanicus to discriminate an A–A and A–B motif pairs of compound visual stimuli. Specifically, this study consists in an operant conditioning procedure including a dichotomous Y-maze, two different pairs of compound visual colored cues and a water reward. Results are conclusive for this visuo-spatial regularities study,(Gryllus pennsylvanicus) were able to significantly discriminate between the two compound visual patterns and learned the association with the reinforcer.

在二选一的奖励学习任务中使用蝼蛄辨别视觉空间复合刺激物

本文提出了一种实验方案，让五步蛇能够分辨A-A和A-B图案对的复合视觉刺激。具体来说，这项研究包括一个操作性条件反射过程，包括一个二分Y型迷宫、两对不同的复合视觉彩色线索和水奖励。这项视觉空间规律性研究的结果是确凿的：蝼蛄能够明显地区分两种复合视觉图案，并学会了与强化物的联系。

期刊介绍： Animal Cognition is an interdisciplinary journal offering current research from many disciplines (ethology, behavioral ecology, animal behavior and learning, cognitive sciences, comparative psychology and evolutionary psychology) on all aspects of animal (and human) cognition in an evolutionary framework. Animal Cognition publishes original empirical and theoretical work, reviews, methods papers, short communications and correspondence on the mechanisms and evolution of biologically rooted cognitive-intellectual structures. The journal explores animal time perception and use; causality detection; innate reaction patterns and innate bases of learning; numerical competence and frequency expectancies; symbol use; communication; problem solving, animal thinking and use of tools, and the modularity of the mind.
