Abstract
The performances of 3 squirrel and 4 black-faced capuchin monkeys during successive spatial discrimination reversal training were studied in a form board box. Both groups showed progressive error reduction across 19 reversal problems, with error scores of the Capuchins significantly lower than those of the Squirrels.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
