大量的研究已经证明了在大鼠和人类的顺序行为任务中规则学习的证据。我们采用了2选择系列多项选择（SMC）任务，用于大鼠研究鸽子的序列行为。在一个触摸屏上，给小猪呈现了8个圆形排列的圆盘，啄一个发光的圆盘可以得到奖励。正确的响应包括串行模式，涉及“运行”块的三个元素（123 - 234等）。有些鸽子在最后一个组块中遇到了违反组块规则的情况。与大鼠不同，鸽子在违规组块上犯的错误比运行组块少，这表明鸽子使用低级别线索来指导选择。删除低级别提示并将错误照亮的磁盘数量增加到8选择SMC任务，导致违规块上出现更多错误。当磁盘阵列收缩或扩展时，以及当块长度扩展到四个和五个元素时，Piglets能够使用该规则，但当磁盘从阵列中删除或添加到阵列时，则无法使用该规则。猪也能够从“颤音”模式中抽象出结构（121 232等），如违规试验中的高错误率所示。这些结果表明，鸽子与大鼠和人类一样，可以抽象序列结构，但主要是在缺乏特定的低级基于特征的信息的情况下这样做。
Extensive research has documented evidence for rule learning in sequential behavior tasks in both rats and humans. We adapted the 2-choice serial multiple choice (SMC) task developed for use with rats to study sequence behavior in pigeons. Pigeons were presented with 8 disks arranged in a circular array on a touchscreen, and pecking to an illuminated disk could lead to reward. Correct responding consisted of serial patterns involving ‘run’ chunks of three elements (123 234, etc.). Some pigeons experienced a violation of the chunk rule in the final chunk. Unlike rats, pigeons made fewer errors on Violation chunks than Run chunks, suggesting the use of low-level cues to guide choices. Removal of low-level cues and increasing the number of simultaneously-illuminated disks to an 8-choice SMC task resulted in more errors on the Violation chunk. Pigeons were able to use the rule when the array of disks was contracted or expanded, and when chunk length was extended to four and five elements, but not when disks were removed from or added to the array. Pigeons were also able to abstract structure from a ‘trill’ pattern (121 232 etc.), as shown by high error rates on a Violation trial. These results suggest that pigeons, like rats and humans, can abstract sequence structure, but do so primarily in the absence of specific low-level feature-based information.
