Sutton J, Shettleworth S
J Exp Psychol Anim Behav Process . 2008 Apr; 34(2):266-82. PMID: 18426309
Metamemory, the ability to report on memory strength, is clearly established in rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) by converging evidence from several paradigms. In contrast, A. Inman and S. J. Shettleworth...

Shettleworth S, Sutton J
Behav Brain Sci . 2008 Feb; 26(3):353-354. PMID: 18241460
When animals choose between completing a cognitive task and "escaping," proper interpretation of their behavior depends crucially on methodological details, including how forced and freely chosen tests are mixed and...

Miller N, Shettleworth S
J Exp Psychol Anim Behav Process . 2007 Jul; 33(3):191-212. PMID: 17620021
K. Cheng (1986) suggested that learning the geometry of enclosing surfaces takes place in a geometric module blind to other spatial information. Failures to find blocking or overshadowing of geometry...

Cheng K, Shettleworth S, Huttenlocher J, Rieser J
Psychol Bull . 2007 Jun; 133(4):625-37. PMID: 17592958
Spatial judgments and actions are often based on multiple cues. The authors review a multitude of phenomena on the integration of spatial cues in diverse species to consider how nearly...

Skov-Rackette S, Miller N, Shettleworth S
J Exp Psychol Anim Behav Process . 2006 Oct; 32(4):345-58. PMID: 17044738
The authors report a novel approach to testing episodic-like memory for single events. Pigeons were trained in separate sessions to match the identity of a sample on a touch screen,...

Ratcliffe J, Fenton M, Shettleworth S
Brain Behav Evol . 2006 Jan; 67(3):165-76. PMID: 16415571
We investigated the potential relationships between foraging strategies and relative brain and brain region volumes in predatory (animal-eating) echolocating bats. The species we considered represent the ancestral state for the...

Gibson B, Juricevic I, Shettleworth S, Pratt J, Klein R
Learn Behav . 2006 Jan; 33(3):296-308. PMID: 16396077
We conducted four experiments in order to investigate whether pigeons' responses to a recently attended (i.e., recently pecked) location are inhibited. In Experiments 1 and 2, stimulus displays were similar...

Sutton J, Shettleworth S
J Comp Psychol . 2005 Sep; 119(3):273-284. PMID: 16131256
The relative importance of an internal sense of direction based on inertial cues and landmark piloting for small-scale navigation by White King pigeons (Columba livia) was investigated in an arena...

Shettleworth S
Behav Processes . 2005 Apr; 69(2):147-9. PMID: 15845301
Examples of how animals learn when multiple, sometimes redundant, cues are present provide further examples not considered by Hutchinson and Gigerenzer that seem to fit the principle of taking the...
