Abstract

The development of the inhibition of a bar-press response in young rats indicates a critical age at which performance starts to improve, regardless of the amount of prior training. However, experience with the task during a period well before performance would normally begin to improve produces a dramatic facilitation of the inhibitory performance of these rats in adulthood. Thus, the young rats appear to learn to inhibit well before they can perform. These results are discussed in relation to attempts to investigate brain correlates of the development of inhibition.
