Testing behavioral flexibility in pigeons using conditional midsession reversal tasks

recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior"

DOI: 10.1002/jeab.70028

Abstract: Midsession reversal examines behavioral flexibility by requiring animals to reverse a discrimination midway within a session. This reversal behavior is controlled by changing temporal factors over the session. We tested behavioral flexibility in pigeons by… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2019 at "International Journal of Primatology"

DOI: 10.1007/s10764-019-00113-x

Abstract: Research suggests that wild animals in urban areas exhibit heightened behavioral flexibility when they encounter novel human-made objects, but most such studies compared responses in urban populations with those from disjunct populations in less disturbed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.brainres.2018.09.031

Abstract: Transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2) is a Ca2+-permeable, nonselective cation channel and a member of the TRP channel superfamily that acts as a sensor of intracellular redox states. TRPM2 is widely distributed in many… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2022.02.008

Abstract: We often perform actions even when they incur heavy costs or no longer serve any clear purpose. Two recent studies have independently identified heightened phasic dopamine release in the dorsomedial striatum as a predisposing factor… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropharm.2019.107832

Abstract: Deficits in behavioral flexibility are a hallmark of multiple psychiatric, neurological, and substance use disorders. These deficits are often marked by decreased function of the prefrontal cortex (PFC); however, the genesis of such executive deficits… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.nutres.2017.10.011

Abstract: Behavioral flexibility (BF) performance is influenced by both psychological and physiological factors. Recent evidence suggests that impulsivity and blood glucose can affect executive function, of which BF is a subdomain. Here, we hypothesized that impulsivity,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.pbb.2017.07.012

Abstract: Abstract The ability to rapidly switch behaviors in dynamic environments is fundamental to survival across species. Recognizing when an ongoing behavioral strategy should be replaced by an alternative one requires the integration of a diverse… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.2c04528

Abstract: Repeated excessive alcohol consumption increases the risk of developing cognitive decline and dementia. Hazardous drinking among older adults further increases such vulnerabilities. To investigate whether alcohol induces cognitive deficits in older adults, we performed a… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2021 at "Communications Biology"

DOI: 10.1038/s42003-020-01611-y

Abstract: Lack of behavioral flexibility has been proposed as one underlying cause of compulsions, defined as repetitive behaviors performed through rigid rituals. However, experimental evidence has proven inconsistent across human and animal models of compulsive-like behavior.… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2020 at "Integrative and comparative biology"

DOI: 10.1093/icb/icaa032

Abstract: The complexity of an animal's interaction with its physical and/or social environment is thought to be associated with behavioral flexibility and cognitive phenotype, though we know little about this relationship in amphibians. We examined differences… read more here.
