“…Thus, a first set of studies showed that baboons (Fagot, Wasserman, & Young, 2001), and then pigeons (Cook & Wasserman, 2007), can solve this task when the relations are illustrated by arrays of multiple stimuli rather than by pairs of items. In addition, recent studies have revealed that nonhuman primates can pass the RMTS task with pairs of items rather than arrays after extensive training on the task (in a capuchin, Truppa, Mortari, Garofoli, Privitera, & Visalberghi, 2011;in baboons, Fagot & Parron, 2010;Fagot & Thompson, 2011) or with specific reinforcement contingencies (Flemming, Thompson, Beran, & Washburn, 2011). Vonk (2003) further reported relational matching in a gorilla and orangutans with limited training.…”
