“…They reached opposite conclusions but agreed that the first outcome affects subsequent learning. Studies focused on individual learning demonstrated that humans, monkeys, cats, and pigeons learn best from (their own) successes (Riopelle et al, 1954; Riopelle, 1955, 1960; Warren, 1959; Mishkin, 1964; Itoh et al, 2001; van Duijvenvoorde et al, 2008; Cook and Fagot, 2009).
