How does cognition determine an individual’s fitness? A systematic review of the links between cognition, behaviour and fitness in non-human animals
Lots of studies try to explain how cognition might evolve, by taking a behavioural ecology approach
Has this approach made any progress?🧵

We tested whether birds show better response inhibition when the stop signal matches their ecological niche. 🐤
No clear effect, but plenty of learning (on both sides of the test box).
