摘要：

Birds were trained to discriminate between two song syllables that varied only in the absence of the 2nd or 5th harmonic. Both sexes used the presence or absence of the 2nd harmonic as the sole discriminative cue. Females had more difficulty learning to perform the task when the presence of the 2nd harmonic was the go stimulus, which indicates that their use of the information was biased by stimulus-response contingencies. -from Authors
