Abstract
Two monkeys whose dorsolateral prefrontal cortex had been ablated were tested on delayed alternation tasks in a locomotor maze. They responded correctly after they had developed pronounced positional habits in the startbox, but disruption of such habits resulted in impaired performance. The addition of visual cues led to new positional habits and improved performance. The results are interpreted in terms of the kinesthetic functions of prefrontal cortex.
