Can associative learning be the general process for intelligent behavior in non-human animals?

2021-12-16

Abstract excerpt

The general process- and adaptive specialization hypotheses represent two contrasting explanations for understanding intelligence in non-human animals. The general process hypothesis proposes that associative learning underlies all learning, whereas the adaptive specialization hypothesis suggests additional distinct learning processes required for intelligent behavior. Here, we use a selection of experimental para...
