Abstract
Groups of 10 rats were given one-way avoidance training under bilateral spreading depression (BSD) or Sham BSD (control) with ITIs of 30, 60, 120, or 240 sec.; shock side confinement was held constant at 20 sec. Results indicated BSD Ss were inferior to Sham BSD Ss; there was a significant ITI effect, the short ITIs resulting in slower learning.Keywords
