Abstract
Using split-brain monkeys, reversal behavior was observed under two conditions. In the first both hemispheres viewed the discrimination cues. Previous to this one hemisphere had been taught to respond to one cue and the other hemisphere had learned the opposite response. The task was reversed each time after responding to one cue reached criterion. In the second reversal condition, each hemisphere was individually presented the reversal of the task it had initially learned. An analysis of the results indicates that as a function of reinforcement, the response probability of pre-established habits can change without a corresponding change in the strength of these habits.
