Thirteen hooded rats were trained to discriminate between either a pattern of stationary or moving vertical black and white stripes and a uniform grey stimulus matched for total luminous flux. The striate cortex was then removed in 7 animals, and the dorsolateral frontal cortex in the remaining 6. Animals with frontal cortical lesions relearned the task with substantial positive savings. All animals with striate cortex removed succeeded in relearning the discrimination, although with negative savings. Control tests showed that the animals were not discriminating on the basis of any uncontrolled differences in luminosity.
