在所有时代和国家，音乐和舞蹈都构成了人类文化和交流的中心部分。最近，人们发现鹦鹉和大象等学习声音的动物与人类具有相同的节奏能力。因此，我们研究了在受控条件下和系统设计的实验范式作为理解音乐夹带演变的第一步，鹦鹉，一种声音模仿鹦鹉物种的节奏同步。我们训练了八只虎皮鹦鹉来执行等电位敲击任务，在这些任务中，它们按照视听节拍器样刺激的节奏啄出一个键。虎皮鹦鹉表现出在很宽的节奏范围内对外部刺激的夹带证据。它们似乎天生就倾向于以快节奏敲击，这与虎皮鹦鹉自然发声的节奏具有相似的时间尺度。我们认为，声乐学习可能有助于他们的表现，这类似于人类。
In all ages and countries, music and dance have constituted a central part in human culture and communication. Recently, vocal-learning animals such as parrots and elephants have been found to share rhythmic ability with humans. Thus, we investigated the rhythmic synchronization of budgerigars, a vocal-mimicking parrot species, under controlled conditions and a systematically designed experimental paradigm as a first step in understanding the evolution of musical entrainment. We trained eight budgerigars to perform isochronous tapping tasks in which they pecked a key to the rhythm of audio–visual metronome-like stimuli. The budgerigars showed evidence of entrainment to external stimuli over a wide range of tempos. They seemed to be inherently inclined to tap at fast tempos, which have a similar time scale to the rhythm of budgerigars' natural vocalizations. We suggest that vocal learning might have contributed to their performance, which resembled that of humans.
