An operant nonmatching-to-sample procedure was used to compare the spatial memory abilities of 3 avian species. A trial consisted of the presentation of a spatially defined sample, a delay interval, and a 2-choice test during which the correct location was the new location. A single spatial location served as the sample in Exp 1. The delay interval was manipulated using a titration procedure. In Exp 2, 1, 2, or 3 sequentially illuminated locations served as the sample. The delay was 1 of 4 predetermined intervals. In Exp 3, sample presentation was the same as Exp 2, but the delay interval was titrated. In all of the experiments, the performance of nutcrackers was consistently better than the performance of scrub jays and pigeons (Exp 1) and was correlated with differences in their foraging ecology.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
