This study examines cognitive variation in great tits along an urbanization gradient, finding limited evolutionary change but identifying genetic factors linked to inhibitory control.

This study investigates genetic and environmental factors driving urban phenotypic divergence in great tits using a common garden experiment, finding that genetic and individual differences explain most trait variation, while urban behavioral differences are more plastic.

This study investigates whether urbanization and exploration affect caching and spatial memory in black-capped chickadees, finding no urban gradient effect but a link between caching frequency and spatial memory accuracy.
