Differential effects of scopolamine on working and reference memory of rats in the radial maze.
Anticholinergics have often been found to impair choice accuracy in the radial maze. Some researchers have suggested that this indicates involvement of cholinergically innervated structures in cognitive mapping while others argue that these structures mediate working memory. However, most results are open to either interpretation since the baiting method did not allow a distinction between refe...
متن کاملNigella sativa Oil Enhances the Spatial Working Memory Performance of Rats on a Radial Arm Maze
Nigella sativa, an established historical and religion-based remedy for a wide range of health problems, is a herbal medicine known to have antioxidant and neuroprotective effects. This present study investigated the effect of Nigella sativa oil (NSO) administration on the spatial memory performance (SMP) of male adult rats using eight-arm radial arm maze (RAM).

Spatial memory in dogs (Canis familiaris) on a radial maze.
Working spatial memory in dogs (Canis familiaris) was tested in Experiments 1 and 2 on an 8-arm radial maze. When dogs chose freely among all 8 arms containing food in Experiment 1, they learned to enter all 8 arms with progressively fewer arm visits over trials. In Experiment 2, 2 groups of dogs were forced to visit 4 randomly chosen arms on the maze and then tested for memory of these arm vis...
