Abstract
Massed shuttle training in a 4-ft. runway was given to 16 rats. The gradients of the logarithms of the time per trial spent in the start box and in successive 1-ft. segments of the runway were compared for each of 7 successive blocks of 10 trials for all Ss and for 12 blocks for 4 randomly selected Ss. Running was most rapid in the middle of the runway and speed increased with practice. Near the start box, however, the effect of practice on speed was not as great as elsewhere in the runway; moreover, time spent in the start box was more variable from block to block than it was elsewhere.
