摘要: Rats learned to discriminate between two degrees of roughness, detecting the stimuli only with their vibrissal system. After bilateral trimming vibrissae, performance abruptly dropped chance levels and remained there throughout period in which vibrissae were kept trimmed. regrew approximately normal lengths, rats again exhibited high demonstrated retention task. This discriminative procedure would appear be appropriate for psychophysical assessment system function.
