Abstract

Studies were undertaken in order to delineate and analyze the following: (1) Spectral sensitivity capacities of the cat visual system, using several operant behavioral conditioning methods. Research was directed towards determining correlations between the sensory capacities of the cat as assessed behaviorally and electrophysiologically. (2) Analyzing the basis for inter-hemispheric reversal of left-right mirror-image patterns following monocular training in the pigeon. (Author)
