Insect cognition

A neuron (green and white) in an insect brain (blue)

Insect cognition describes the mental capacities and study of those capacities in insects. The field developed from comparative psychology where early studies focused more on animal behavior.[1] Researchers have examined insect cognition in bees, fruit flies, and wasps.[2][3]  

Research questions consist of experiments aimed to evaluate insects abilities such as perception,[4] emotions[1][5] attention,[3] memory (wasp multiple nest),[1] spatial cognition,[1][6] tools use,[3] problem solving,[3] and concepts.[3][7] Unlike in animal behavior the concept of group cognition plays a big part in insect studies.[7][8][9] It is hypothesized some insect classes like ants and bees think with a group cognition to function within their societies;[8][9] more recent studies show that individual cognition exists and plays a role in overall group cognitive task.[5]

Insect cognition experiments have been more prevalent in the past decade than prior.[3] It is logical for the understanding of cognitive capacities as adaptations to differing ecological niches under the Cognitive faculty by species when analyzing behaviors, this means viewing behaviors as adaptations to an individual's environment and not weighing them more advanced when compared to other different individuals.[10]
