Transfer of the "same-different' differentiation task in dogs.
Four dogs, previously trained to perform on the "same-different" differentiation with tones transfered readily to the same task with new stimuli of the same (auditory) modality. The data are interpreted as an support for the "matching" hypothesis and a disproof of the notion of "conditioned switching".
