Problems solved by technology

However, in previous studies, there was no standardized experimental device for bird mirror recognition tests, and the experimental devices in some papers could not complete the observation and recording of bird behavior well. Quantitative evaluation and horizontal comparison of this type of research, for this reason, it is very necessary to develop an experimental device that can effectively detect the cognitive function of small birds

Embodiment

[0011] refer to figure 1 , the box body 1 of the present invention is the rectangular body that side wall is provided with ventilation hole 12, top is provided with dodge door 11, and ventilation hole 12 is beneficial to the circulation of air, and dodge door 11 is used for placing or taking out the bird animal that wants experiment and The facilities in the box 1 are arranged; a glass plane mirror 2 is arranged on one side of the box 1, which is used to carry out a mirror image recognition test on birds; According to living conditions, three cameras 3 are respectively arranged on the side surface opposite to the glass plane mirror 2 and the adjacent two sides in the casing 1 .

[0012] Considering the living habits of small birds, wooden perches 7 and water basins 8 are arranged in the box body 1, which is convenient for birds to stand, clean feathers and drink water, and restore the cage environment of birds' daily life as much as possible. In order to reduce its stress res...

Abstract

The invention discloses an experimental device for detecting a cognitive function of small birds. The experimental device comprises a box body, a glass plane mirror, cameras, a perching frame, a water basin, a display screen and a microprocessor. The side wall of the box body of the experimental device is made from a unidirectional perspective material, so that light rays are allowed to penetrate and the birds in the box body cannot see an object outside clearly; and multiple cameras are connected with the microprocessor and the display screen, so as to multi-directionally monitor and record interactive behavior and living conditions of the birds in the box body. The experimental device can accurately record videos of the birds in an experimental period, so that the habits of the birds can be detected and the cognitive function of the birds can be analyzed. The experimental device disclosed by the invention has the advantages of simple structure, accurate video record and easiness in operation as well as capability of storing the original experimental video and convenience in subsequent research and analysis.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of animal experiment devices, in particular to an experimental device for detecting the cognitive function of small birds. [0002] technical background [0003] The mirror self-recognition test (Mirror Self-recognition, MSR) was pioneered by the psychologist Gallup, using self-pointing behavior in front of the mirror as an indicator, and assessing whether animals have self-awareness through their ability to recognize their own mirror images. In scientific research, mammals such as gorillas, bonobos, bottlenose dolphins, Asian elephants, and killer whales have passed mirror image recognition tests. Taxa also entered into this test. However, in previous studies, there was no standardized experimental device for bird mirror recognition tests, and the experimental devices in some papers could not complete the observation and recording of bird behavior well. For the quantitative evaluation and horizontal compar...
