## Abstract In the first of two experiments on spatial competence, groups of lightβreared (LR) and darkβreared (DR) rats were compared using a (latent learning) variation of the Morris Water Maze task. On their initial test, the LR rats benefited more than DR rats did from viewing the room/pool fro

Strychnine sulphate administered to rats during post-natal development affected the rate of maze learning in adulthood. Rats given the drug in a rich environment (drug-rich group) learned a maze at a faster rate than rats treated similarly but raised in laboratory cages (drug-caged group). The perfo
This series of studies investigated the effects of predator exposure on working memory in rats trained on the radial arm water maze (RAWM). The RAWM is a modified Morris water maze that contains four or six swim paths (arms) radiating out of an open central area, with a hidden platform located at th
