Evolutionary ecology of learning: insights from fruit flies (2009, positive): “More recent decades have seen the emergence and development of cognitive ecology, which focuses on the functions of learning in nature and on adaptive differences in learning skills between populations and species in relation to their ecology (Shettleworth 1999; Healy and Braithwaite 2000; Reader an”
Individual variation in spontaneous problem-solving performance among wild great tits (2011, background): “The link between cognition and ecology has received growing interest in recent years (see Healy & Braithwaite 2000; Dukas 2004; Biernaskie et al. 2009; Roth et al. 2010).”
The fast and the flexible: cognitive style drives individual variation in cognition in a small mammal (2018, background): “Cognitive abilities are part of a species' adaptation to its environment (Dukas, 2004; Shettleworth, 2010).”
Complex relationship between multiple measures of cognitive ability and male mating success in satin bowerbirds, Ptilonorhynchus violaceus (2011, background): “Cognition is commonly defined as neuronal processes concerned with acquisition, processing, retention and use of information (Dukas 2004; Shettleworth 2010).”
Mate choice for cognitive traits: a review of the evidence in nonhuman vertebrates (2011, background): “Cognition, defined as the neuronal processes concerned with the acquisition, processing, retention, and use of information (Shettleworth 2001; Dukas 2004), allows animals to track changes in their habitat within their lifetime and solve novel problems, features that seem unequivocally advantageous (”
Personality affects learning performance in difficult tasks in a sex-dependent way (2012, background): “This means that attention and learning ability can have important fitness consequences and thus underlie natural selection (Dukas 2004; Nussey et al. 2007; Sutter & Kawecki 2009).”
Spatiotemporal Dimensions of Visual Signals in Animal Communication (2007, background): “Despite a growing literature on attentional constraints and foraging ecology (Dukas 2004), attentional processes have received little explicit consideration in animal communication.”
Learning, memory and predator avoidance by freshwater snails: effects of experience on predator recognition and defensive strategy (2006, background): “The lack of a response of many prey taxa to predator kairomones is surprising, especially in light of the large literature demonstrating the capacity of both vertebrates and invertebrates for associative learning (Dukas 2004).”
Heritability and the evolution of cognitive traits (2015, background): “Cognition can be defined as the neuronal processes concerned with the acquisition, retention and use of information (Dukas 2004).”
