The birds in a line, who could only see their nearest neighbor, not only were less coordinated when scanning, but also were more nervous, changing their body and head positions significantly more than grosbeaks ____ a circle, where it was possible for each grosbeak to see every other grosbeak.

Otherwise put, the information ____ in a person’s factual beliefs guides how that person’s imaginings unfold; it does the same for other cognitive attitudes.
