New paper out with @AmandaMSeed! We used a sequence completion task to probe implicit & explicit learning. Nice predicted results in human adults, nice intriguing results in children & capuchin monkeys! authors.elsevier.com/a/1haGX3lcz45E…

The ABC lab at @univofstandrews @st_psy have been busily creating online studies for children . The website is ready to view and there are lots of fun games for children to play to help us learn how their minds work! tinyurl.com/an3fzuex. Please share far and wide!

Baboons exhibit different sensitivity to context-free grammar and context-sensitive grammar go.nature.com/2C484Nn

[8/8] Following van Heijningen et al. (2009), we moreover propose that the presence of adjacent repetitions may impede the extraction of more complex structural regularities from sequences, as the animals can adopt this simpler, and efficient, strategy.

[7/8] We hypothesize that the detection of adjacent repetitions strategy is therefore likely to be adopted by the participants in experiments contrasting adjacent and non-adjacent repetition patterns against each other.

[1/8] Our new paper on structural (aka abstract) regularities learning in baboons is out in JCP! Feedbacks very welcome 😊 psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?doi…

12 21, 123 321, 456 64.. HUH?! That's what the baboons said too! New paper out in @SciReports with @StanDehaene & Joel Fagot on supra-regular grammars processing in baboons. nature.com/articles/s4159…
