Conceptualisation of Relationships
Bees are capable of determining various complex relationships by grouping and recalling stimuli associatively (Srinivasan & Zhang 2004; Srinivasan 2010). Such relationships include symbolic cues or rules and their association with reward, colour and shape association, matching to sample tasks and non-matching tasks (also known as sameness and difference association), colour/shape and odour association, application of the concept of matching to deal with stimuli not previously encountered, and object-independent counting (Srinivasan & Zhang 2004; Behrends & Scheiner 2009; Srinivasan 2010; Chittka & Jensen 2011).
Conceptualisation of relationships by bees allows us to understand the mechanisms responsible for categorisation, recognition and perception of stimuli, how these are applied to learn specific navigational strategies, and why they have evolved (Srinivasan 2010).
