Fundamental but difficult to define, the concept of "concept" was discussed for hundreds of years by philosophers before it became a focus of psychological study. Concepts enable humans and animals to organize the world into functional groups; the groups may be composed of perceptually similar objects or events, diverse things that have a common function, relationships such as same versus different, or relations among relations such as analogies. [44] Extensive discussions on these matters together with many references may be found in Shettleworth (2010) [1] Wasserman and Zentall (2006) [27] and in Zentall et al. (2008). The latter is freely available online. [45] Methods [ edit ] a b Brown MF, Cook RG, eds. (2006). Animal Spatial Cognition: Comparative, Neural, and Computational Approaches. [On-line].
