Abstract
The present experiment compared normals and defectives under conditions of massed and distributed practice on the rotary pursuit task. Over-all, normal Ss showed a larger build-up of inhibition than defectives although this effect could not be demonstrated independently of performance level and distribution of practice. There were sex differences in both prerest and postrest performance. There were some characteristics of postrest performance which could be ascribed to the development of a "permanent" inhibition effect.
