How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Darwin's mistake: Explaining the discontinuity between human and nonhuman minds (2008, unknown): “Moreover, we agree with Lazareva et al. (2004) that these results are consistent with some kind of " spatial representation " hypothesis (Gillan 1981).”
An investigation of learning strategy supporting transitive inference performance in humans compared to other species. (2006, background): “…species such as monkeys Boysen, Bernston, Shreyer, & Quigley, 1993; Buckmaster, ichenbaum, Amaral, Suzuki, & Rapp, 2004; D’Amato & olombo, 1989; Gillan, 1981; McGonigle & Chalmers, 1977; app, Kansky, & Eichenbuam, 1996), pigeons (Ferson, Wynne, elius, & Staddon, 1991; Wynne, 1995, 1997,…”
Transitive responding in animals and humans: Exaptation rather than adaptation? (1998, background): “The earlier studies on monkeys and apes by McGonigle and Chalmers (1977) and Gillan (1981) had suggested that both these species possessed the competence of transitive deduction to a degree comparable with that of at least younger humans.”
Concept learning in animals. (2008, unknown): “…(Fersen, Wynne, Delius, & Staddon, 1991; Steirn, Weaver, & Zentall, 1995; Lazareva & Wasserman, 2006), crows (Lazareva, Smirnova, Bagozkaja, Zorina, Rayevsky, & Wasserman, 2004), monkeys (McGonigle & Chalmers, 1977), and chimpanzees (Boysen, Berntson, Shreyer, & Quigley, 1993; Gillan, 1981).”
