  1. Numerosities and Other Magnitudes in the Brains: A Comparative View.Elena Lorenzi, Matilde Perrino & Giorgio Vallortigara - 2021 - Frontiers in Psychology 12.
    The ability to represent, discriminate, and perform arithmetic operations on discrete quantities (numerosities) has been documented in a variety of species of different taxonomic groups, both vertebrates and invertebrates. We do not know, however, to what extent similarity in behavioral data corresponds to basic similarity in underlying neural mechanisms. Here, we review evidence for magnitude representation, both discrete (countable) and continuous, following the sensory input path from primary sensory systems to associative pallial territories in the vertebrate brains. We also speculate (...)

  • Spatial cognition and the avian hippocampus: Research in domestic chicks.Anastasia Morandi-Raikova & Uwe Mayer - 2022 - Frontiers in Psychology 13.
    In this review, we discuss the functional equivalence of the avian and mammalian hippocampus, based mostly on our own research in domestic chicks, which provide an important developmental model. In birds, like in mammals, the hippocampus plays a central role in processing spatial information. However, the structure of this homolog area shows remarkable differences between birds and mammals. To understand the evolutionary origin of the neural mechanisms for spatial navigation, it is important to test how far theories developed for the (...)
