Abstract
Delayed-response, delayed-alternation and spatial reversal performance of monkeys with amygdalohippocampal resections was compared to that of monkeys with inferior and lateral temporal resections and to that of unoperated control animals. Medial temporal lobe resections resulted in an impairment on delayed alternation but not on delayed response. This deficit was found to be related to a severe deficit in spatial reversal learning. Both results were interpreted in terms of a response perseveration tendency.
