Effect of video game experience on the simulated flight task: the role of attention and spatial orientation by Tianjiao Lu, Menghan Tang, Yu Guo, Chenchen Zhou, Qingxian Zhao, Xuqun You

“…Objective In this study, we investigated the advantages of attention allocation and spatial orientation among video game players (VGPs) and non-video game players (NVGPs) and explored the performance differences between the two groups in flight simulations. Method Thirty candidates from a Chinese university were categorised as VGPs and NVGPs before participating in all tests. …”

Nathusius’ bats, Pipistrellus nathusii, bypass mating opportunities of their own species, but respond to foraging heterospecifics on migratory transit flights by Lara C. Marggraf, Lara C. Marggraf, Oliver Lindecke, Oliver Lindecke, Oliver Lindecke, Christian C. Voigt, Christian C. Voigt, Gunārs Pētersons, Silke L. Voigt-Heucke, Silke L. Voigt-Heucke

“…We expected that during migratory transit flights, simulated feeding opportunities would be particularly attractive to bats, as well as simulated mating opportunities which may indicate suitable roosts for a stopover. …”
