“…Experiments 3-5 strongly support the possibility of such an inhibitory process in adults (e.g., because the effects of Random RMTS are predicted only on such an account). Studies replicating the results of Experiments 3 (Kroupin & Carey, 2020) and 4 (Kroupin, 2020) with 4year-olds (using RMTS and size-only RMTS tasks, respectively, as dependent variables instead of OMTSvRMTS) are consistent with this same inhibitory process in young children. Moreover, other evidence shows that nonhuman animals (here pigeons) can also learn to inhibit attention to a particular stimulus dimension when it varies systematically between trials but the discrimination rule being learned is over a different dimension (e.g., learning a rule based on color while learning to inhibit attention to pattern; Dopson et al, 2010).…”

“…These results also help make sense of an otherwise puzzling pattern of findings in the comparative literature alluded to above: One the one hand, some studies find that Identity MTS training does not ensure success at RMTS (e.g., Fagot et al, 2001, and according to a reviewer for Kroupin & Carey, 2020, most nonhuman animals in RMTS studies have had previous experience with Identity MTS). On the other hand, there is reason to suppose the MTS training in Smirnova et al (2015) and Obozova et al (2015).…”
