Effect of Deprivation on Delayed Response and Delayed Alternation Performance by Normal and Brain Operated Monkeys
نویسنده
چکیده
3 monkeys impaired on delayed response and delayed alternation after midlateral frontal lesions, 3 monkeys unimpaired on these tasks after control lesions, and 3 unoperated monkeys were tested on spatial delayed response (with direct baiting) and spatial delayed alternation following 2, 26, and 50 hr. of food deprivation. Increased deprivation improved delayed response performance by all groups to a similar extent. Increased deprivation had no effect on delayed alternation performance by any group.

.... 1 I .. , A well known effect of lesions of frontal granular cortex and of all limbic structures including the hippocampus is the impairment of the classical delayed spatial alternation problem (Pribram et at. 1952. 1962, 1966; Mishkin and Pribram 1955; Mishkin 1964; McEnaney and Butter 1969). Not every alternation performance, however. shows a decrement from frontal cortex or medial forebr...
متن کاملEffect of vitamins B1, B6 and B12 (Neurobion) on diisopropylfluorophosphate–induced delayed neuropathy in mice
Certain organophosphorus esters such as diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) cause delayed neuropathy by inhibition of neuropathy target esterase (NTE) keeping neuron in normal function. In this study, effects of neurobion alone and in combination with dexamethasone on DFP–induced delayed neuropathy were evaluated. Thirty-five mice were divided to five groups that each group consists 7 mice. Except...

متن کاملEffects of lesions of the medial forebrain on alternation behavior of rhesus monkeys.
In two experiments involving the delayed alternation task, monkeys with lesions of the hippocampal formation and monkeys with lesions of cingulate cortex were compared with controls. Either of these lesions caused impairment in original postoperative learning of delayed alternation; the hippocampal formation resections also produced a deficit in the retention of preoperatively acquired delayed ...

Two studies are reported which demonstrate that in delayed alternation the spatial factor, though essential, serves primarily the sequential aspects of the task. Experiment 1 repli· cates with computer and additional controls an earlier study in which the ordinarily symmetric intertrial intervals were made asymmetric, Experiment 2 studies the effects on performance strategies of moving the plac...
