Abstract
In 3 chiasma-sectioned cats the 2 hemispheres were conditioned to "closely conflicting experiences," in visual pattern discrimination situations. "Under these circumstances one hemisphere did not seem to benefit from the experience of the other in that wrong responses were consistently made when the one was tested in the problem situation of the other . . ‥ It was concluded that the effects of direct sensory experience are a great deal more forceful in learning than the effects of information transmitted between the hemispheres through the corpus callosum."
