Maze Learning by Honeybees

Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, 1996
This study examines whether honeybees can learn to fly through complex mazes, in the presence or the absence of specific visual cues. The results are summarized as follows: 1. Bees can learn to fly through a complex maze by following a trail of colored marks. 2.

Maze learning in Alzheimer's disease

Brain and Cognition, 1991
Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and normal elderly controls performed a block of 10 trials on a finger maze, followed by a 45-min period during which verbal learning measures were administered. Subjects then performed an additional 10 trials on the original maze, followed by 10 trials on a new maze.

Perceptual Learning in Maze Discriminations

The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology Section B, 1991
In Experiment 1, rats were trained on a discrimination between rubber- and sandpaper-covered arms of a maze after one group had been pre-exposed to these intra-maze cues. Pre-exposure facilitated subsequent discrimination learning, unless the discrimination was made easier by adding further discriminative stimuli, when it now significantly retarded ...

SOCIAL REINFORCEMENT AND MAZE LEARNING IN CHILDREN

Child Development, 1968
An experiment was carried out on 80 boys and girls, at 2 age levels, into the effects of social reinforcement upon maze learning. 4 treatment conditions were used: no social reinforcement, positive social reinforcement only, negative social reinforcement only, and combined positive and negative social reinforcement.

Maze-learning behavior in early adrenalectomized rats

Physiology & Behavior, 1988
Rats adrenalectomized (ADX) on day 11 of life display enhanced brain growth due, at least in part, to a stimulation of cell proliferation and myelinogenesis. The present study investigated some functional consequences of this treatment. Rats were ADX or sham-operated (SHAM) on postnatal day 11 and then tested in adulthood for their problem-solving ...

Maze exploration and learning in C. elegans

Lab Chip, 2007
The soil dwelling nematode, Caenorhabditis (C.) elegans, is a popular model system for studying behavioral plasticity. Noticeably absent from the C. elegans literature, however, are studies evaluating worm behavior in mazes. Here, we report the use of microfluidic mazes to investigate exploration and learning behaviors in wild-type C.

Unrewarded Exploration and Maze Learning

Psychological Reports, 1971
32 rats were given exploration time in a straight alley and a T-maze prior to a critical run. Just prior to this run 16 of the rats were fed in a replica goal box and 16 were shocked. The rats demonstrated latent learning by going to the good-goal box and avoiding the shock-goal box. The χ3 values were significant beyond the .05 level.
