For my biology class, I'm performing an experiment on Blaptica dubia to observe whether they can be trained to respond specifically to a positive external stimulus as opposed to simply switching their likes and dislikes. What I'm doing in a nutshell is feeding sugar-enhanced mangoes to the dubia after playing a buzzing noise for 5 seconds. I'll continue doing so until I see the roaches visibly expecting food when it plays. Additionally, there is a control group which simply get the sugar-enhanced mangoes. I'm sure the others would be very jealous of the control group if they could experience jealousy.
For those of you who are interested in the results, which I expect to be positive like the peppermint experiment, you can reply to or follow this thread, as it's where I'll be posting updates.
