Learning by observation in rhesus monkeys.
Habit memory provides us with a vast repertoire of learned rules, including stimulus-reward associations, that ensures fast and adapted decision making in daily life. Because we share this ability with monkeys, lesion and recording studies in rhesus macaques have played a key role in understanding the neural bases of individual trial-and-error habit learning. Humans, however, can learn new rule...
متن کاملDelay discounting of cocaine by rhesus monkeys.
The present, subjective value of a reinforcer typically decreases as a function of the delay to its receipt, a phenomenon termed delay discounting. Delay discounting, which is assumed to reflect impulsivity, is hypothesized to play an important role in drug abuse. The present study examined delay discounting of cocaine injections by rhesus monkeys. Subjects were studied on a discrete-trials tas...
متن کاملThe relationship of tooth size to body size in a population of rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta).
Tooth areas correlate significantly with long bone measurements in a skeletal population of rhesus monkeys from Cayo Santiago. Correlations are relatively large for the troop as a whole, as well as for males and females separately. Femur and humerus length measurements show the higheres correlations with tooth size.
متن کاملPretraining and discrimination reversal learning by rhesus monkeys
Groups of five to seven macaques were trained on repeated reversals of a visual (or spatial) discrimination habitafter no pretraining, extended discrimination training, or repeated reversal training on spatial (or visual) cues. Neither sortof pretraining had a significant effect on reversal learning on the second cue. These results indicate that monkeys' capacity to develop generalized "win-sta...
متن کاملSelf-agency in rhesus monkeys.
Rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) have shown the ability to monitor their own mental states, but fail the mirror self-recognition test. In humans, the sense of self-agency is closely related to self-awareness, and results from monitoring the relationship between intentional, sensorimotor and perceptual information. Humans and rhesus monkeys were trained to move a computer icon with a joystick whi...
