Nissani, Moti; Hoefler-Nissani, Donna; Lay, U. Tin; Htun, U. Wan – Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2005
Two experiments explored the behavior of 20 Asian elephants ("Elephas aximus") in simultaneous visual discrimination tasks. In Experiment 1, 7 Burmese logging elephants acquired a white+/black- discrimination, reaching criterion in a mean of 2.6 sessions and 117 discrete trials, whereas 4 elephants acquired a black+/white- discrimination in 5.3…
