Learning spatial prepositions by Iranian EFL learners
The aim of the present study is threefold. The first is that whether there is any difference betweendifferent proficiency level language learners 'use of spatial prepositions. The Second aim is toreveal that if the native language of the participants has any effect on applying the appropriateprepositions and also to find which spatial preposition is difficult to acquire. The present paperexamin...
متن کاملOdor preferences shape discrimination learning in rats.
Forced-choice discrimination is a standard behavioral paradigm used to test animals' abilities in learning and memory. In this type of task, a reward association is made between a sensory stimulus and a food or water reward and the frequency of correct choice for the stimulus associated with the reward is measured. We show here that when olfactory sensory stimuli are used, spontaneous preferenc...
متن کاملVitamin D Deficiency Impairs Spatial Learning in Adult Rats
Background: Through its membrane and intracellular receptors, vitamin D regulates many vital functions in the body including its well known actions on musculoskeletal system. Growing body of evidences demonstrate that vitamin D undergoes some of behavioral aspects of neurocognition. The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of food regimens without vitamin D or with a supplement of ...
متن کاملIntrahippocampal administration of an NMDA-receptor antagonist impairs spatial discrimination reversal learning in weanling rats.
Systemic administration of MK-801, an NMDA-receptor antagonist, impairs reversal learning in weanling rats [Chadman, K.K., Watson, D.J., & Stanton, M.E. (2006). NMDA-receptor antagonism impairs reversal learning in developing rats. Behavioral Neuroscience, 120(5), 1071-1083]. The brain systems responsible for this effect are not known in either adult or young animals. This study tested the hypo...
متن کاملSpatial discrimination reversal learning in weanling rats is impaired by striatal administration of an NMDA-receptor antagonist.
The striatum plays a major role in both motor control and learning and memory, including executive function and "behavioral flexibility." Lesion, temporary inactivation, and infusion of an N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)-receptor antagonist into the dorsomedial striatum (dmSTR) impair reversal learning in adult rats. Systemic administration of MK-801 disrupts reversal learning in developing rats, a...
