摘要: Abstract This study assessed the effects of altered prenatal auditory experience on bobwhite quail chicks' (Colinus virginianus) species-specific preference for maternal call. Results revealed that when repetition rate embryonic vocalizations normally present in environment was altered, species-typical hatchlings call also altered. Specifically, embryos exposed to with a faster than normal subsequently preferred over one its rate. Bobwhite thus appear able abstract features their other events postnatal period. demonstration perceptual learning is keeping recent studies from behavioural embryology, which have demonstrated can influence later responses stim...
