摘要
The learning and retention of conditioned avoidance responses by goldfish were studied in a two-way avoidance task designed to minimize the demands of the task for forebrainless fish. Forebrainless fish were less active than normal fish in both pretraining response rate and between-trial cross rate. Forebrainless fish learned the avoidance response as well as normal fish with a minimal barrier and a 10-sec light-shock interval. Forebrainless fish were inferior to normal fish after insertion of a larger barrier which reduced the area for avoidance, concomitant with a 4-sec light-shock interval. Removal of the telencephalon produced significant deficits in the performance of a previously learned avoidance response; however, there was evidence for partial savings. It is proposed that the normal function of the telencephalon is best considered to be that of facilitating the processing of information. © 1969.
