Radiation research in psychology: An analysis of techniques in maze experimentation. |
|
| Authors: | Kaplan Sylvan J. |
| Abstract: | The Lashley III maze has been frequently used in studying the effects of radiation on rats because it has been efficient in showing differential effects upon learning as related to amount of cortical insult. Although results have been remarkably consistent, an analysis of methodological procedures reveals a considerable variation. The need for standardizing apparatus and procedures is discussed.
