Abstract
Pigeons, with one eye open, were reinforced for pecking at a 45° oblique line (/). When the opposite, untrained, eye alone was open, pigeons responded maximally to the mirror-image (135° [unknown]) of the training stimulus (45° [unknown]). This unexpected interocular reversal of mirror-image stimuli has not been reported for any other species.Keywords
