The performance of bonobos (Pan paniscus), chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), and orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus) in two versions of an object-choice task.

30 Jul 2009 The object-choice task tests animals' ability to use human-given cues to find a hidden reward located in 1 of 2 (or more) containers. Great apes are generally unskillful in this task whereas other species including dogs (Canis familiaris) and goats ...

The development of caching and object permanence in Western scrub-jays (Aphelocoma californica): which emerges first?

30 Jul 2009 Recent studies on the food-caching behavior of corvids have revealed complex physical and social skills, yet little is known about the ontogeny of food caching in relation to the development of cognitive capacities. Piagetian object permanence is ...

Spatial memory recall in the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca).

30 Jul 2009 The current study tested spatial memory recall in 1 male and 1 female giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca). The task required subjects to make a delayed response to a previously lighted location, with varying lengths of delay between the observation ...

When writing impairs reading: letter perception's susceptibility to motor interference.

30 Jul 2009 The effect of writing on the concurrent visual perception of letters was investigated in a series of studies using an interference paradigm. Participants drew shapes and letters while simultaneously visually identifying letters and shapes embedded ...

Embodiment of abstract concepts: good and bad in right- and left-handers.

30 Jul 2009 Do people with different kinds of bodies think differently? According to the body-specificity hypothesis, people who interact with their physical environments in systematically different ways should form correspondingly different mental ...

Target selection by the frontal cortex during coordinated saccadic and smooth pursuit eye movements.

30 Jul 2009 Oculomotor tracking of moving objects is an important component of visually based cognition and planning. Such tracking is achieved by a combination of saccades and smooth-pursuit eye movements. In particular, the saccadic and smooth-pursuit systems ...

An ERP investigation on visuotactile interactions in peripersonal and extrapersonal space: evidence for the spatial rule.

30 Jul 2009 The spatial rule of multisensory integration holds that cross-modal stimuli presented from the same spatial location result in enhanced multisensory integration. The present study investigated whether processing within the somatosensory cortex ...

Development of visuospatial ability and kanji copying in Williams Syndrome.

30 Jul 2009 Williams syndrome is known for uneven cognitive abilities. Visuospatial difficulties such as a failure in constructing objects are considered to be characteristic and may influence the copying of Japanese semantic characters, kanji. In contrast to ...

Motor recovery after stroke: a systematic review.

30 Jul 2009 Loss of functional movement is a common consequence of stroke for which a wide range of interventions has been developed. In this Review, we aimed to provide an overview of the available evidence on interventions for motor recovery after stroke ...

Analysis of Memory Formation during General Anesthesia (Propofol/Remifentanil) for Elective Surgery Using the Process-dissociation Procedure.

30 Jul 2009 Background: There have been reports of memory formation during general anesthesia. The process-dissociation procedure has been used to determine if these are controlled (explicit/conscious) or automatic (implicit/unconscious) memories. This study ...
