Abstract
"Four monkeys (Macaca mulatta) with anterior frontal lesions performed as well as 4 control operates on delayed-response tasks whenever nonpositional predelay cues were substituted for the traditional predelay cues. Frontal operates impairment on traditional delayed-response tasks is therefore probably related not only to the delay, but to some aspect of the pre-delay, but to some aspect of the pre-delay cue as well."
