Analogical reasoning in a capuchin monkey (Cebus apella).

29 Apr 2008 Previous evidence has suggested that analogical reasoning (recognizing similarities among object relations when the objects themselves are dissimilar) is limited to humans and apes. This study investigated whether capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella) can ...

Intermanual transfer of prism adaptation.

29 Apr 2008 The authors measured intermanual transfer in participants (N = 48) whose exposed or unexposed right or left hand was tested 1st after participants experienced prismatic displacement. Test order did not affect either participants' performance during ...

Time but not force is transferred between ipsilateral upper and lower limbs.

29 Apr 2008 The authors compared the force and time endpoint accuracy of goal-directed ipsilateral upper and lower limb isometric contractions and determined the components of motor performance that can be transferred from 1 limb to the other after practice. ...

Prototype abstraction by monkeys (Macaca mulatta).

29 Apr 2008 The authors analyze the shape categorization of rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) and the role of prototype- and exemplar-based comparison processes in monkeys' category learning. Prototype and exemplar theories make contrasting predictions regarding ...

Stirring the hearts of followers: charismatic leadership as the transferal of affect.

29 Apr 2008 In 2 studies, the authors found that leader charisma was positively associated with followers' positive affect and negatively associated with followers' negative affect. The authors hypothesized that leaders' positive affect, positive expression, ...

Bidirectional associations in multiplication memory: conditions of negative and positive transfer.

29 Apr 2008 A variety of experimental evidence indicates that the memory representation for multiplication facts (e.g., 6 x 9 = 54) incorporates bidirectional links with a forward association from factors to product and a reverse association from product to ...

Improving fluid intelligence with training on working memory.

26 Apr 2008 Fluid intelligence (Gf) refers to the ability to reason and to solve new problems independently of previously acquired knowledge. Gf is critical for a wide variety of cognitive tasks, and it is considered one of the most important factors in ...

Intramanual and intermanual transfer of the curvature aftereffect.

24 Apr 2008 The existence and transfer of a haptic curvature aftereffect was investigated to obtain a greater insight into neural representation of shape. The haptic curvature aftereffect is the phenomenon whereby a flat surface is judged concave if the ...

Pavlovian influences on goal-directed behavior in mice: the role of cue-reinforcer relations.

23 Apr 2008 Two experiments refined procedures to study Pavlovian influences on goal-directed behavior in mice and studied the effects of CS-US relations in Pavlovian-instrumental interactions. Independent groups of mice underwent Pavlovian training to ...

The use of perceptual features in categorization by orangutans (Pongo abelli).

14 Apr 2008 The extent to which categorization of natural classes in animals reflects a generalization based on perceptual similarity versus an abstract conceptual representation remains unclear. Here, two experiments were conducted to identify the perceptual ...
