Cognitive enrichment affects behavioural reactivity in domestic pigs (2007, background): “In some respects this is comparable to current approaches in fundamental ethology (e.g. ‘cognitive ecology’; Real, 1993) investigating cognitive abilities and behavioural demands of species imposed by their specific environment (for reviews, see Shettleworth, 2001; Healy and Jones, 2002).”
Less is more: social learning of predator recognition requires a low demonstrator to observer ratio in Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) (2004, background): “Social learning has been investigated widely in various taxa and is considered a common feature of vertebrate ecology (Kieffer and Colgan 1992; Heyes and Galef 1996; Shettleworth 2001; Griffin 2004).”
Making habitat selection more “familiar”: a review (2011, background): “In theory, learning and memory of spatial features might be measured by investigating changes in the regions of the brain that control these functions in vertebrates (e.g., the hippocampus of birds and mammals: Sherry et al. 1992; Jacobs and Spencer 1994; Patel et al. 1997; Shettleworth 2001) before”
An evaluation of current perspectives on consciousness and pain in fishes (2004, background): “Even if nociception-induced rocking and rubbing behaviour was complex, the assumption that complex behaviour per se must be indicative of ‘higher processing’ is incorrect (Shettleworth 2001).”
Evolution and behavioural responses to human-induced rapid environmental change (2011, background): “While the notion of understanding how animals ‘think about’ their environments may seem suspect to many ecologists, it is a main topic of study for animal behaviourists and is often crucial for properly understanding behaviour (Shettleworth 2001; DeWaal 2008).”
An Integrated Review of Indirect, Relational, and Social Aggression (2005, background): “However, more recent research and theory on primate cognition (e.g., Barrett, Henzi, & Dunbar, 2003; Shettleworth, 2001) cautions against accepting the claim that tactical deception exists among nonhuman primates, at least in the monkey species, such as baboons, for which it has been claimed.”
Travel routes and planning of visits to out-of-sight resources in wild chacma baboons, Papio ursinus (2007, background): “They not only remember ‘what’ to find ‘where’, but also memorize the timing of a past event (‘when’): the corresponding cognitive ability has been labelled ‘episodic memory’ (reviewed in Griffiths et al. 1999; Shettleworth 2001; Healy & Hurly 2004).”
The Eco-field Hypothesis: Toward a Cognitive Landscape (2005, background): “…have been considered with hostility by ecologists, but today modern cognitive ethology is validating the importance of mental representation (Beer 1996; Beugnon et al. 1996; Benhamou and Pouchet 1996; Shettleworth 2001; Bingman and Able 2002) although epistemological and communication gaps persist.”
