Abstract

Professor Nicola Clayton is perhaps best known for her work on food-caching scrub jays. Her seminal 1998 paper, together with Anthony Dickinson, showed that scrub jays could remember what food they had cached, where and how long ago, suggesting memory ability that is 'episodic-like' in nature. Here, we present data from a previously unpublished study that sought to replicate and extend these findings. The results replicate previous findings and address potential alternative explanations for earlier results. We argue that the controlled behavioural analyses introduced in this study have the potential to add nuance to our understanding of memory in scrub jay cache retrieval, and to inspire new studies exploring this phenomenon, about which we still have so much to learn.

重新审视丛鸦的情景记忆:我们还能从何时何地的缓存行为中学到更多东西吗?
尼古拉·克莱顿教授最出名的可能是她对贮藏食物的灌丛鸦的研究。1998年,她与安东尼·迪金森(Anthony Dickinson)共同发表了一篇具有开创性意义的论文,表明灌木丛鸦能够记住它们储存的食物、地点和时间,这表明它们的记忆能力本质上是“情景式”的。在这里,我们提供了一项先前未发表的研究的数据,该研究试图复制和扩展这些发现。这些结果重复了之前的发现,并对早期结果提出了可能的替代解释。我们认为,本研究中引入的控制行为分析有可能增加我们对灌丛鸦缓存检索记忆的理解的细微差别,并激发探索这一现象的新研究,关于这一现象,我们还有很多需要学习。
