认知能力的进化有时被归因于性选择。雄性的交配成功与其认知能力之间的关联可能是通过雄性与雄性之间的竞争或通过雌性的选择而产生的。特别是在后一种情况下，如果雄性通过展示来提高自己的认知能力，性选择就会更容易发生。然而，大多数与性展示有关的特征，似乎不太可能与认知有任何内在的关系，除了通过认知能力对资源获取的影响以及资源对展示特征发展的影响而产生的关系之外。相反，对于那些需要学习来发展和表达的显示器，由于对大脑功能的共同依赖，与认知的直接联系是可能的。发展压力对歌曲学习和认知的平行影响为歌曲属性和认知能力之间的关联提供了令人信服的解释。我们概述的假设，性选择质量的歌曲作为一个指标的认知能力。我们首先提出的证据表明，歌曲学习本身是一个具有挑战性的认知任务。然后，我们给出的证据表明，性选择有利于良好的学习歌曲。接下来，我们回顾了歌曲和认知能力都受到发展压力影响的证据。我们考虑最近的实验数据测试歌曲和认知能力之间的关系。最后，我们认为，歌曲学习的准确性可能是其他认知能力的最佳指标。
The evolution of enhanced cognitive ability has sometimes been attributed to sexual selection. An association between the mating success of males and their cognitive ability could arise either through male-male competition or through female choice. Specifically in the latter case, sexual selection would act more readily if males advertized their cognitive ability through display. Most traits involved in sexual display, however, seem unlikely to have any inherent relationship with cognition beyond that which arises through the effect of cognitive abilities on acquisition of resources and, in turn, the effect of resources on development of the display trait. In contrast, for displays whose development and expression require learning, a direct link with cognition is possible because of a shared dependence on brain function. The parallel effects of developmental stress on song-learning and cognition provide a compelling explanation for an association between attributes of the song and cognitive ability. We outline the hypothesis that sexually selected qualities of song serve as an indicator of cognitive abilities. We first present evidence that song-learning is itself a challenging cognitive task. We then give evidence that sexual selection favors well-learned song. Next, we review evidence that song and cognitive ability both are affected by developmental stresses. We consider recent experimental data testing the relationship between song and cognitive ability. Finally, we suggest that the accuracy with which songs are learned may be an optimal indicator of other cognitive abilities.
