Septal ablation and CAR acquisition in the golden hamster
Tóm tắt
Bilateral septal lesions produced a significant improvement in the acquisition of a two-way active avoidance response in the hamster in comparison to the performance of operated controls and normal animals. A significant negative correlation was found between trials to criterion and intertrial spontaneous crossings for all groups combined. It appeared that normal hamsters have difficulty learning a two-way locomotor avoidance response.
