Online contributions of auditory feedback to neural activity in avian song control circuitry.

27 Oct 2008 Birdsong, like human speech, relies critically on auditory feedback to provide information about the quality of vocalizations. Although the importance of auditory feedback to vocal learning is well established, whether and how feedback signals ... Read more...

Candidate neural locus for sex differences in reproductive decisions.

21 Oct 2008 Sexual selection and signal detection theories predict that females should be selective in their responses to mating signals in mate choice, while the response of males to signals in male competition should be less selective. The neural processes ... Read more...

Hemispheric specialization in dogs for processing different acoustic stimuli.

7 Oct 2008 Considerable experimental evidence shows that functional cerebral asymmetries are widespread in animals. Activity of the right cerebral hemisphere has been associated with responses to novel stimuli and the expression of intense emotions, such as ... Read more...
