The stimulus materials presented on these pages were prepared to look as realistic as possible. Depending on the settings of your monitor (screen resolution, size, # of colors, brightness, etc) they may look different than what the pigeons actually saw. I have found that some machines do not show all of the colors correctly, for example. Finally, the layout of these pages was done on a high resolution 17'' monitor. I have tried to accommodate the use of smaller sized displays, but if I haven't in all cases, sorry.
