Same-different learning of odour stimuli in dogs
Abstract The performance of detection dogs relies on their ability to detect and alert to variations of the stimuli upon which they have been trained. As such, research has tended to focus on understanding the likelihood of generalising beyond a trained stimulus set. However, it remains unclear…

Social evaluation of skilfulness in Tonkean macaques (Macaca tonkeana) and brown capuchins (Sapajus apella)
Abstract For optimal decision-making, social animals can benefit from evaluating others’ behaviours. Some species seemingly consider the skills of others when deciding who to interact with in different contexts. Yet, whether and how nonhuman animals form impressions about others’ competence is…

The effect of familiarity and dog’s body size on female owners’ dog-directed communication
Abstract Exaggerated prosody directed toward dogs has multiple functions, including attention getting and maintaining as well as expressing positive emotions toward the canine partner. However, the role of prosody in owner-dog familiarity remains unclear. To address this gap, we examined the effect…

Cognitive performance of dusky damselfish in a detour task with increasing difficulty
Abstract Cognitive performance in animals can be assessed through the detour task, which challenges spatial navigation, decision-making, and behavioral flexibility. The most common versions of the detour task often fail to involve processing of different environmental cues, the adjusting of…

Changes in cognitive performance following repeated exposure to a hand-touch learning task across breed clades of domestic dogs (Canis familiaris)
Abstract Selective breeding for specialized functional roles has resulted in consistent differences among domestic dog breeds in a range of cognitive capacities, as demonstrated by standardized cognitive assessments. What remains uncertain is whether these breed differences extend beyond initial…

More experience in the initial learning of spatial information improves cognitive flexibility in food-caching chickadees
Abstract Cognitive flexibility - the ability to adjust previously learned associations given novel information - is hypothesized to allow animals to respond to variable conditions. While cognitive flexibility is thought to primarily rely on executive control, previous experiences may interfere with…

Generalist vs. specialist: cognition and behavioral flexibility in Gambusia across habitats
Abstract Identifying associations between ecological strategy and cognitive and behavioral traits is essential in predicting species sensitivity or persistence in the face of environmental change. Ecological generalists with a larger niche breadth are expected to exhibit high levels of behavioral…

Unpacking response inhibition in animals – part 1: a conceptual framework
Abstract Response inhibition - the ability to suppress or stop actions - is crucial for adaptive behaviour across species. The concept of response inhibition has traditionally been regarded as a unidimensional psychological ability. However, there is an increasing recognition of its multifaceted…

Simple life, simple minds? How habitat simplification in aquatic ecosystems shape fish cognition
Abstract This narrative review synthesises current knowledge on the effects of habitat complexity, defined as the variation in physical structures within ecosystems, on fish cognition, brain morphology, and personality. Globally, habitat complexity is declining through a process known as habitat…

Toy exploration in gifted word learner dogs and typical dogs
Abstract Labelling has a pronounced effect on increasing infants’ attention to objects. At the same time, infants actively seek social cues when presented with novel objects and early signs of communicative intent are considered essential for language learning. Although no other species has been…

Unpacking response Inhibition in animals – part 2: an empirical test
Abstract Response inhibition - the ability to suppress or stop actions - is crucial for adaptive behaviour across species. In Part 1 of this study, we presented a conceptual framework for understanding response inhibition as multifaceted. Specifically, we conceptualised response inhibition as a…

‘Unwilling’ vs. ‘Unable’: do domesticated dogs choose partners based on their intentional actions?
Abstract The capacity to understand the intentions of other agents is a useful capacity for all social organisms. Several studies to date have explored whether domesticated dogs (Canis familiaris) share this capacity. Although previous studies show that dogs behave differently toward humans who are…

Ecological factors affecting prosociality in marmoset monkeys
Abstract Prosocial behaviors, such as cooperation and food sharing, are critical for maintaining group cohesion in social species, yet the influence of transient physiological states on these behaviors remains poorly understood. This study investigates how short-term ecological factors impact…

Waiting for reward: preference for signalled delays increases with average wait time
Abstract When rewards occur after a delay, signals that the wait will be shorter than average can be valuable. A recent study by Macias et al. (2024) found that pigeons preferred an alternative providing signals for a short or long delay to food over an alternative that provided no signals about…

An animal model of radiological medical image reading: detection of lung abnormalities in multi-slice CT by pigeons (Columba livia)
Abstract Accurate detection of pathologies like pulmonary lung nodules is critical as they can be a marker of a potential cancerous, life-threatening condition. The detection of such nodules, however, is a difficult visual task requiring extensive radiological training. But, considering this…

Executive functioning in wild guppies: investigating the impact of a pharmaceutical pollutant
Abstract The executive functions are a suite of cognitive-control processes that enable goal-directed behaviour. Executive functioning is vital in allowing animals to adapt their behaviour to changing environmental conditions, which is a key determinant of the success of individuals, populations…

Rank and payoff biases influence subject choices in a foraging task among sanctuary chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes)
Abstract Social learning is essential to the development of culture in humans, non-human primates, and other cultural species. Transmission biases (social learning strategies), the cognitive processes that guide conscious and subconscious decisions about when and from whom to learn, are a key…

Heads and tails of individual differences: the role of environmental complexity in cognitive development of juvenile lobsters
Abstract Experiencing environmental complexity during early life is fundamental for vertebrate neural development, with profound and often irreversible effects on later behavioural and cognitive outcomes. However, studies on the early stages of invertebrate development are scanty. European lobsters…

Olfactory learning in two Amblypygi species Paraphrynus laevifrons and Phrynus pseudoparvulus
Abstract A wide diversity of arthropod taxa have demonstrated the capacity for learning, but most of our current understanding comes from only a select subset of this highly diverse clade, with most studies focusing on various insect groups. Amblypygids (Order Amblypygi, Class Arachnida), however…

Designing research interfaces for non-human minds: a biocentric design approach for animal cognition research
Abstract The last few decades have indubitably advanced comparative research with non-human participants, often thanks to the implementation of digital interfaces. Nonetheless, the top-down application of anthropocentric designs - fitting animals to human-centered technology and scenarios - has…
