The Effects Of Physostigmine Sulfate On Inferential Learning In The Rat, Stephen Frederic Johnsen

Student Work

The following study has arisen out of an interest in the recent work done on the chemistry of neural transmission. Since experimentation has indicated that certain chemicals affect some lower level learning performance of animals such as maze performance, this experiment is an attempt to find out whether the same effects hold for such a chemical on higher order learning processes, as indicated by Maier's three-table-test.
