Predictive reaching for moving objects by human infants

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the predictive ability of infants to reach for fast moving objects in a predictive way and found that infants had a good predictive ability in the lowest age groups which suggests that it is at least partly prewired.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of Self-Recognition in the Infant.

TL;DR: In this article, a hypothesized five-stage developmental sequence of self-recognition behaviors was tested in 48 infants between 6 and 24 months of age, and the selfrecognition sequence was compared to the development of object permanence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time constraints and multiple choice criteria in the sampling behaviour and mate choice of the fiddler crab, Uca annulipes

TL;DR: It is suggested that the number of males sampled (and other indices of ‘‘sampling effort’’) may not be reliable indicators of female choosiness and may not reflect the strength of female mating preferences under certain conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolution of plumage brightness in birds is related to extrapair paternity.

TL;DR: Brightness of male plumage and sexual dimorphism in brightness were positively associated with high levels of extrapair paternity, even when potentially confounding variables were controlled statistically.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential effects of study and test trials on long-term recognition and recall

TL;DR: For instance, this paper found that training conditions with greater item exposure (study and recognition trials) resulted in more effective recognition, while the conditions which encouraged retrieval (recall and recognition test trials) facilitated recall.
