The purpose of this symposium was to address how the field of comparative animal cognition might best advance (Hulse, this issue). The diversity and excellence of the symposium papers are testimony to the proposition that the field is a thriving enterprise. All the participants, including the authors of this symposium summary, agree that species comparisons are important to the study of cognitive psychology, but on issues related to the purposes of, and specific strategies for, making comparisons, there is disagreement. Table I gives a summary of each participant's research, including species studied and critical issues raised. To sharpen thinking about issues facing the field, we have chosen to emphasize the differences between participants by dividing them into two groups in the table: the generalists and the ecologists.
