Primes¶
- Cognitive Flexibility
- In behavioral ecology it appears as foraging-strategy switching in response to prey-density or seasonal cues, with broader behavioral repertoires predicting colonization success in disturbed environments.
This sourceShows that larger-brained, behaviorally more flexible birds establish more successfully in novel environments.
Supported in partVerified against the work's full text
Shows larger-brained, more innovative birds establish better in novel environments; says nothing on foraging switching to prey-density or seasonal cues.
“avian species with larger brains, relative to their body mass, tend to be more successful at establishing themselves in novel environments.”
- In behavioral ecology it appears as foraging-strategy switching in response to prey-density or seasonal cues, with broader behavioral repertoires predicting colonization success in disturbed environments.
Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
