Group choice and individual choices: modeling human social behavior with the Ideal Free Distribution.

abstract：:In time-place learning (TPL) paradigms animals are thought to form tripartite memory codes consisting of the spatiotemporal characteristics of biologically significant events. In Phase I, rats were trained on a modified TPL task in which either the spatial or temporal component was constant, while the other component ...
