`Learning`?
... Learning is usually defined as a relatively permanent change in behaviour or behaviour potential that occurs through experience. However, it does not refer to behavioural changes that can be explained by temporary states of maturation. Learning is the acquisition and development of memories and beha ...

This term refers to changes that take place in the neocortex when connections are formed or strengthened along frequently used neural pathways, or when unused connections are weakened or lost. During the lengthy period of juvenile development, ...

Non-Human Primates and Communication

Nevertheless, non-human primates appear to have some control over their vocal production. However, vocal flexibility is subtle and often remains ...
