Abstract:
The potential effects of maternal care-related stimuli on imprinting in domestic chicks were examined. In the first phase, one group of chicks received a simulated brooding experience with a primary imprinting object during two training sessions, whereas chicks in another group received exposure to the object without being brooded. In subsequent testing, the brooded chicks showed a robust preference for the primary imprinting object, whereas the non-brooded chicks showed a weaker preference for the object. In the second phase, one group of chicks was exposed to a secondary imprinting object associated with a feeding opportunity, whereas another group received exposure to the object in the absence of such an experience. In subsequent testing, the fed chicks showed a strong preference for the secondary imprinting object, whereas the non-fed chicks showed no preference. These results suggest that stimuli experienced through usual maternal care may be an important factor in filial imprinting.

Abstract:
Auditory filial imprinting induces quantitative changes of synaptic density in the forebrain area mediorostral neostriatum/hyperstriatum ventrale of the domestic chick. The aim of the present study was to examine the time window and the extent and quality of experience that is required for the induction of these synaptic changes. We found that a brief (30 min) experience with the imprinting situation (tone stimulus + mother surrogate) is sufficient to induce spine elimination, which is detectable on postnatal day 7, but not 80 min after the presentation of the imprinting stimuli. This synaptic reorganization requires the association of the acoustic imprinting tone with an emotional reward (mother surrogate); acoustic stimulation alone does not lead to detectable synaptic changes. The results of the present study provide further evidence that juvenile emotional learning events, such as filial imprinting, lead to a selective synaptic reorganization.

Abstract:
AbstractExperiments are reported on filial imprinting and leadership among white leghorn chicks in relation to family integration. Chicks hatched in isolation were given their first exposure to certain parental stimuli (a moving person or clucking sounds recorded from a broody hen) at various ages after hatching from the first to 10th day. Logistic regression and multiple likelihood analysis of the results showed that a significant tendency to follow or to be attracted to parental stimuli was much the greatest during the first day after hatching and then declined exponentially during the rest of the first week. There was a significant correlation between visual and auditory responses to parental stimuli, as well as between a chick's positive responses to clucking and the giving of distress cries by the chick when clucking ceased. Some individual chicks showed a significant tendency to lead the other chicks of a group to stimuli representing the mother, such as a source of warmth, or to the maternal voice (recorded clucking from a speaker).

Abstract:
Effective communication crucially depends on the ability to produce and recognize structured signals, as apparent in language and birdsong. Although it is not clear to what extent similar syntactic-like abilities can be identified in other animals, recently we reported that domestic chicks can learn abstract visual patterns and the statistical structure defined by a temporal sequence of visual shapes. However, little is known about chicks’ ability to process spatial/positional information from visual configurations. Here, we used filial imprinting as an unsupervised learning mechanism to study spontaneous encoding of the structure of a configuration of different shapes. After being exposed to a triplet of shapes (ABC or CAB), chicks could discriminate those triplets from a permutation of the same shapes in different order (CAB or ABC), revealing a sensitivity to the spatial arrangement of the elements. When tested with a fragment taken from the imprinting triplet that followed the familiar adjacency-relationships (AB or BC) vs. one in which the shapes maintained their position with respect to the stimulus edges (AC), chicks revealed a preference for the configuration with familiar edge elements, showing an edge bias previously found only with temporal sequences.

Abstract:
The domestic chick became a model for understanding memory, learning and the onset of social behaviours. Just after hatching and for a limited period, the naïve bird seeks a suitable object to imprint. Thanks to laboratory studies, the filial imprinting has been well documented in the very first few hours. However, how the filial imprinting preferences develop and evolve over time remained relatively unexplored. Therefore, we built an automated setup allowing us to follow the animal behaviour across prolonged durations and investigate the stability and variability of filial imprinting preferences. We demonstrated that three days of exposure to artificial objects produce lasting and robust imprinting preferences. With lower imprinting duration, we found that the animal predispositions strongly influence the filial imprinting preferences. Those social predispositions guide the domestic chicks towards living creatures – or at least, towards stimuli conveying animacy. To complete this general pattern, we performed two experiments manipulating motion dynamics. We showed that chicks prefer quickly rotating objects and agents moving with unpredictable temporal sequences: two cues probably used to detect living animals' presence. Both imprinting and social predispositions influence each other, but whether they share a neurophysiological ground was yet to be described. Such as for filial imprinting, we showed that the thyroid hormone T3 strongly affects the sensitive period for animacy preference. T3-inhibition closes the sensitive period for animacy preference and T3-injections re-opens it. Altogether, the present thesis complete previous research on filial imprinting and social predispositions: two distinct but interconnected mechanisms that can help to better understand the mind foundations at the onset of life.
