Animal Cognition: An End to Insight?

Amanda Madeleine Seed, Neeltje Janna Boogert

Research output: Contribution to journal › Editorial

Abstract

Once hailed as insightful, the string-pulling behaviour of birds may actually rely
on immediate visual feedback rather than mental simulation or planning. But is
this an end to the study of animal insight or a call for a new approach?
