操作条件反射技术被用来调查的能力，斑胸草雀（Taeniopygia guttata）和孟加拉雀（Lonchura striata arctica），以检测斑胸草雀或孟加拉雀目标唱混合与其他鸟鸣。16只鸟被训练对特定目标歌曲的存在做出反应，无论是它们自己的物种（n = 8）还是另一个物种（n = 8）。这些鸟能够学会区分包含目标歌曲的歌曲混合物和不包含目标歌曲的歌曲混合物，并且当目标歌曲与新歌曲混合时，它们能够保持对目标歌曲的反应。斑胸草雀，但不是孟加拉雀，学习的歧视与同种目标更快，更差的检测孟加拉雀在同种歌曲的存在。结果表明，在听觉场景中的鸟鸣声的选择性注意与它们的生物相关性。
Operant-conditioning techniques were used to investigate the ability of zebra finches (Taeniopygia guttata) and Bengalese finches (Lonchura striata domestica) to detect a zebra finch or a Bengalese finch target sang intermixed with other birdsongs. Sixteen birds were trained to respond to the presence of a particular target song, either of their own species (n = 8) or of another species (n = 8). The birds were able to learn a discrimination between song mixtures that contained a target song and song mixtures that did not, and they were able to maintain their response to the target song when it was mixed with novel songs. Zebra finches, but not Bengalese finches, learned the discrimination with a conspecific target more quickly and were worse at detecting a Bengalese finch in the presence of a conspecific song. The results indicate that selective attention to birdsongs within an auditory scene is related to their biological relevance.
