Each of three pigeons used a mirror to locate a spot on its body which it could not see directly. Although similar behavior in primates has been attributed to a self-concept or other cognitive process, the present example suggests an account in terms of environmental events.
每只鸽子都使用镜子来定位自己身体上无法直接看到的部位。尽管灵长类动物中类似的行为被归因于自我概念或其他认知过程,但目前的例子表明可以用环境事件来解释。
