Abstract
Three groups of pigeons were monocularly trained on discrimination with each eye. The animals which were trained on a mirror image discrimination with one eye and a reversed mirror image discrimination with the other eye, and the animals which were trained on a mirror image discrimination with one eye and a horizontal-vertical discrimination with the other eye did not show any difficulty in learning of these tasks. There is no significant difference between the two groups in the numbers of training sessions necessary to reach the criterion. On the other hand, the animals which were trained on a same mirror image discrimination with each eye showed difficulty in learning of the task. This group required longer training to learn the task than did the other two groups. These results suggest that the mirror image reversal effect appeared as a disturbing effect but not as a facilitative effect during the parallel learning with each eye.
