Abstract:
The present paper indicates that it is with appropriate methods, i.e., maze learning and a not-previously used home-cage open-field, possible to observe a learning-induced ambulation increase in a familiar environment lacking novel cues. This finding is at variance with an earlier one achieved by electromagnetic recordings indicating a decrease in activity in the home-cage after passive avoidance conditioning.
