“…In contrast with their relatively poor performances with visual stimuli, rats show rapid learning and even learning set development with odor stimuli (Slotnick, 2001). The exceptional olfactory discrimination abilities of rodents have led to their use in applied settings to detect explosives and diagnose tuberculosis (Poling et al, 2011). Rats can also learn conditional discriminations fairly rapidly with odor stimuli (Lu, Slotnick, & Silberberg, 1993) and generalized identity and oddity have been demonstrated as well (April, Bruce, & Galizio, 2011; Pena, Pitts, & Galizio, 2006; Prichard, Panoz-Brown, Bruce, & Galizio, 2015).…”
