@LydiaMHopper @DeniseHerzing @MaggieRamont @CTennie Excited for this paper with @UCLanthropology MSc student @helenreiderman as 1st author to be published in #AnimBehavCogn. Have a read to see how wild baboons treat objects with and without fur differently.

The very first months of starting at @UniKonstanz, @JankaPlate joined me as an intern and experimented with 3D spider models and spiderlings of different species. Super proud that we published this sweet little project in #AnimBehavCogn! Congrats Janka! animalbehaviorandcognition.org/article.php?id…

@DrFayClark @dianne9m We reported our exclusion criteria in this paper studying Stroop effects in primates mdpi.com/2076-2615/11/3…

Animal cognition folk could you help me find citation/s for when: Animals are excluded from a cognitive study if they don't reach arbitrary training threshold criteria (e.g., pass 9/10 trials). Or lack motivation. Examples from empirical studies/commentaries on this are welcome!
