The discrimination of structure: III. Representation of spatial relationships. (2005)
Journal Article
Haselgrove, M., George, D. N., & Pearce, J. M. (2005). The discrimination of structure: III. Representation of spatial relationships. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 31(4), 433-448. https://doi.org/10.1037/0097-7403.31.4.433

Pigeons received a discrimination in which the spatial relationship between 2 adjacent rectangles filled with different colors signaled the trial outcome. Test trials then involved the same rectangles separated horizontally by a gap. The tests in Exp... Read More about The discrimination of structure: III. Representation of spatial relationships..

The influence of hippocampal lesions on the discrimination of structure and on spatial memory in pigeons (Columba livia). (2005)
Journal Article
Pearce, J. M., George, D. N., Haselgrove, M., Erichsen, J. T., & Good, M. A. (2005). The influence of hippocampal lesions on the discrimination of structure and on spatial memory in pigeons (Columba livia). Behavioral Neuroscience, 119(5), 1316-1330. https://doi.org/10.1037/0735-7044.119.5.1316

Pigeons (Columba livia) were trained with a spatial structural discrimination, which was based on the spatial relationship among the components of a pattern, and a feature-binding structural discrimination, which was based on how different visual fea...

Imitative learning of stimulus-response and response-outcome associations in pigeons (2005)
Journal Article
Saggerson, A. L., George, D. N., & Honey, R. C. (2005). Imitative learning of stimulus-response and response-outcome associations in pigeons. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 31(3), 289-300. https://doi.org/10.1037/0097-7403.31.3.289

A novel automated procedure was used to study imitative learning in pigeons. In Experiments 1 and 2, observer pigeons witnessed a demonstrator pigeon successfully performing an instrumental discrimination in which different discriminative stimuli ind...
