Abstract
The current experiment sought to determine whether the turtle ( Chrysemys), during and following extended pre-exposure to two black or two gray maze arms, would show alternation or response to stimulus change. The results indicated an overwhelming preference for the black arm which was highly resistant to modification in a subsequent black-gray choice situation.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
