|
Chrysemys picta Reversal learning in the painted turtle was studied in both spatial and visual problems. 2 spatial groups (1 reversed daily and the other every 4 days) gave clear evidence of improvement. 2 visual groups (1 reversed every 2 days and the other upon reaching the criterion of 17 out of 20 correct choices) also gave clear evidence of improvement, although with reversal every 4 days in the visual problem improvement did not appear either in an original experiment or in a replication. The relation of these results to those obtained with other animals is considered
