Abstract
Rats direct social rather than eating behavior toward a stimulus rat that predicts the imminent delivery of food. This result suggests that a predictive stimulus does not become a substitute for a reward, but its characteristics elicit and support a particular subset of the responses commonly related to that reward.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
