What reading level is International Journal of Comparative Psychology volume V2no1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Thus, on both phylogenetic and ecological grounds, one might expect Norway rats and house mice to exhibit similar effects of social influence on their feeding behaviors. In particular, given that rats use conspecifics as sources of information about what foods to eat (Galef, 1989a; Galef & Wigmore, 1983), one might predict that house mice would do so as well. It is not, however, at all clear whether one should expect such phenotypic similarity to extend from overt behavior to under- lying proce
...ss.
If rats and mice share only a tendency to eat what others of their species are eating, then such similarity in behavior might well be a convergent response to similar ecological demands rather than the result of homologous social learning process. On the other hand, if details of the learning processes involved in social transmission of food preferences were identical in rats and mice, it would suggest that social learning about foods was homologous in the two species (Simpson, 1961). The experiments described below were undertaken to determine whether the details of the processes of social influence on food choice of house mice were similar to the processes of social influence on food choice exhibited by Norway rats.
