雄性日本鹌鹑学会接近并保持在雌性鹌鹑附近，但如果允许它们与雌性鹌鹑交配，并接受非交配性的雄性鹌鹑接触，则不会接近雄性鹌鹑。本研究探讨了这种类型的辨别学习机制的普遍性。在实验1中，s学会了花更多的时间接近最初不熟悉的金发鹌鹑，而不是熟悉的棕色雌鹌鹑或雄性鹌鹑，因为它被允许与金发鹌鹑交配，而不是棕色鹌鹑。在实验2中，相比于雌性鹌鹑，s学会了对不能繁殖的雄性鹌鹑做出更多的反应，因为它被允许与雄性鹌鹑交配，而不是与雌性鹌鹑交配。实验提供了一些证据，证明了一种倾向于对独立于交配强化偶然性的雌性做出反应。然而，研究结果也表明，物种特异性性刺激的辨别学习具有显著的可塑性。（PsycINFO数据库记录(c) 2016 APA，版权所有）
Male Japanese quail learn to approach and remain near female, but not male, quail if they are allowed to copulate with female quail and receive noncopulatory exposures to males. The generality of the mechanisms involved in this type of discrimination learning was investigated in the present study. In Exp 1, Ss learned to spend more time near initially unfamiliar blonde quail than familiar brown female or male quail as a result of being allowed to copulate with the blonde, but not the brown, quail. In Exp 2, Ss learned to respond more to nonreproductive male as compared with female quail as a result of being allowed to copulate with the males, but not with the females. The experiments provided some evidence of a bias favoring responding to females independent of copulatory reinforcement contingencies. However, the results also indicated remarkable plasticity of discrimination learning about species-specific sexual stimuli.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
