Abstract
Monocular acquisition and interocular transfer of a horizontal-vertical discrimination were measured in 18 albino rats with unilateral lesions of the striate cortex and in 9 unoperated Ss. Ss trained with the eye contralateral to the lesion failed to learn the discrimination unless it had previously been acquired via the ipsilateral eye. Ss trained via the ipsilateral eye learned quickly if ipsilateral-eye training came first, but performed erratically if ipsilateral training followed contralateral training. Interocular transfer occurred in unoperated Ss, but it was incomplete.
