Abstract
Rats trained in a discrimination-reversal situation with either food pellets or intracranial stimulation as the reinforcing stimulus were not appreciably different in their first-task performance, but reversal training was slower if the first discrimination was learned with brain stimulation.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
