该实验旨在发现一些可能对确定迷宫中老鼠的左右位置习惯具有重要意义的因素。一组30只雄性大鼠在T形迷宫中奔跑，每天5次，持续7天。经过初步训练后，每只老鼠都接受了最终测试，只要它在迷宫中奔跑，它就一直呆在迷宫里。当动物不再表现出对食物的渴望时，停止奔跑。在最后的测试中，一只老鼠停在第 39 圈，其他老鼠的范围高达 104 圈。老鼠作为一个群体，往往比概率所允许的更频繁地走正确的道路。然后这些动物被杀死并清理它们的头骨。鼻骨正中缝的曲率与个体选择正确路径的频率相关。训练系列中正确路径的频率与鼻骨正中裂曲率的角度测量值之间的相关性为。 312. 最终测试的前 35 轮运行结果相同。 432. 因此，当在最终测试中或多或少完全学会了迷宫时，相关系数就变得足够高，具有显着性。这似乎表明，在最后的测试中，老鼠已经了解到，无论哪条路径都同样能令人满意地达到目标，因此在路径选择上任其随意。结果，他们更频繁地朝鼻尖指向的方向走。大鼠鼻骨正中缝的曲率可能是影响体位习惯的因素之一。（PsycINFO数据库记录（c）2016 APA，保留所有权利）
This experiment was designed to discover some factor which might be significant in determining right or left position habits of rats in a maze. A group of 30 male rats were run in a T-shaped maze, 5 times per day for 7 days. After this preliminary training each rat was given a final test which kept it in the maze as long as it ran. The running was stopped when the animal showed no further desire for food. In this final test one rat stopped at the 39th circuit, and the others ranged as high as 104 circuits. The rats as a group tended to take the right path more often than probability would allow. The animals were then killed and their skulls were cleaned. The curvature of the median suture of the nasal bones was correlated with the frequencies of the individual choice of the right path. The correlation between the frequencies of the right path in the training series and the angular measurements of the curvature of the median fissure of the nasal bones was. 312. The same in the first 35 runs in the final test was. 432. Thus, when the maze had been learned more or less completely in the final test, the correlation coefficient became sufficiently high to be significant. This seems to indicate that in the final test, the rats had learned that either path was equally satisfactory in reaching the goal, and so let themselves go at random in the choice of paths. As a consequence they went more often in the direction to which the tip of their nose was pointing. The curvature of the median suture of the nasal bones of rats might be one of the factors responsible for position habits.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
