To reduce the impact on the next experiment, the maze was cleaned with 70% ethanol after each trial and with 10% bleach at the end of the day. It has the following characteristics: economy, rapidity, design simplicity, and bidirectional drug sensitivity (Carobrez and Bertoglio, 2005). Long...
In the second experiment, Sprague-Dawley rats ( = 24) were randomly assigned to either the sleep deprived group or the motor control group. All rats were housed in a motorized wheel, with the sleep-deprived group being kept awake for a 6-hour period of time by movement for 3 seconds on...
In the present experiment, littermate male and female hooded rats were reared either in same-sex groups in a complex environment or alone in standard cages for 30 days after weaning. The rats were then trained for 24 days in a partially baited 17-arm radial maze with either a minimum of ...
The present experiment investigated the effects of exposure to inescapable shocks (IS) on subsequent behavior in an elevated plus-maze and on shuttlebox-escape performance in male and female rats. In the elevated plus-maze, exposure to IS resulted in suppression of "total number of arm entries"...
Rats were trained to locate food in a response, direction, or place problem on an open field located at 2 positions. In Experiment 1, both the response and... DM Skinner,CM Etchegary,EC Ekert-Maret,... - 《Journal of Experimental Psychology Animal Behavior Processes》 被引量: 91发表: ...

The study of maze learning in rodents has always played a prominent role in experimental psychology, so much so that in some ways it can be considered the archetypal experiment in the field. From a historical perspective this can be illustrated nicely by Karl Lashley’s use of maze learning ...
In a different experiment, subjects solved large and small mazes (N = 3 subjects). The former was the same as the latter but was scaled up by 1.77 times. Thus both kinds of mazes contained the same number of squares but each square subtended 1.77 degrees of visual angle (DVA) in the ...
