The study was aimed at assessing if capuchin monkeys’ learning ability to discriminate stimuli by size varied on the basis of both stimulus types (images, foods and objects) and kind of procedures used for stimulus presentation (computerised and non-computerised). Moreover, subjects’ ability to generalise the solution of the problem across different task conditions has been evaluated.
