摘要: Time-place discrimination has been shown reliably in several avian and insect species, but only occasionally rats fish. In the present experiments, we explored effects of response cost on time-place by rats. first experiment, increased making a choice recovering from wrong two types maze, radial arm vertical maze. found general place preference, whereas obtained evidence discrimination. second that proportion showing with height and, therefore, These results suggest do not automatically store and/or retrieve time reward events is an important trigger for
