Abstract

This examined whether the visual discrimination is based upon form perse in rats. Eleven rats were trained to avoid electric shocks by discriminating upright and inverted triangle and were given three transfer tests. The test results showed that regional flux differences within the figure were more significant cues than form on the original discrimination. These results were consistent with those of Buchtel (1969) and Winans (1971).
