文摘
- •
Visually naïve, newly hatched chicks show a preference to approach predisposed stimuli.
- •
Intermediate medial mesopallium (IMM) responds differently to predisposed and non predisposed stimuli.
- •
Higher activity in IMM is associated with approach to a non predisposed stimulus, reflecting the need for increased plasticity.
- •
Activation of IMM is lateralised between the two hemispheres.
