Abstract
Using a modified Lashley-type jumping apparatus, doves reared without opportunity for visual form experience were given monocular training in a visual discrimination problem. Normally reared birds were used as a control group. Following initial training the birds were tested for transfer of the discrimination to the non-used eye, or transfer to binocular vision. Transfer was poorer for the visually deprived birds than for their normal controls, being poorest for the monocular transfer. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)Keywords
