Of particular interest This book is about sensitive periods during neural and behavioral development. Truly interdisciplinary, it brings together the two fields dealing with behavioral notion of imprinting and the similar neural phenomenon of the sensitive period of visual development by directly showing some of their achievements side by side.are the articles on the neu roethology of auditory development in owls, sensitive periods of birdsong development, and neural visual development. Contributions in both sections emphasize the mechanisms that govern the neural and behavioral modifications observed in developmental plasticity, the role of experience, and the existence of sensitive periods in which growing organisms are peculiarly sensitive to certain stimuli to which they may be unresponsive at other times.
Developmental Plasticity in the Auditory System; Early Experience Shapes Auditory Localization Behavior and the Spatial Tuning of Auditory Units in the Barn Owl; Neural Plasticity in Birdsong Learning; Hormones and Critical Periods in Behavioral and Neural Development; Sensitive Periods and the Roles of Specific and General Sensory Stimulation in Birdsong Learning; Neural Consequences of Imprinting; Imprinting as a Process of Competitive Exclusion; Developmental Plasticity Self-organization or Learning?
