Abstract
Summary After cockroaches were trained to traverse an illuminated runway with darkness as the rewarding event, they were given brief “primes” of darkness in the startbox. Runway performance was enhanced, but these priming effects declined as postprime delay (i.e., the delay before a roach was permitted to leave the startbox) was increased. A second experiment found that the response enhancement was greater after primes of long duration than after primes of short duration. The present work suggests a possible distinction between the priming properties of food and water on the other hand, and darkness, brain stimulation, and an imprinting object on the other.
