Dissociation of memory signals for metamemory in rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta).

abstract：:Sound categorisation plays a crucial role for processing ecological and social stimuli in a species' natural environment. To explore the discrimination and evaluation of sound stimuli in human babies and nonhuman primates, a reciprocal habituation-dishabituation paradigm has been successfully introduced into auditory ...
