Abstract

The present experiment compared the establishment of a position habit and three subsequent response shifts with and without discriminative stimuli. The discriminative stimuli employed were (a) 90° and 180° polarization patterns and (b) high and low intensity levels. A significant difference (0.05) was found between the running time performance of the polarization discrimination group and the uniform illumination and bright-dark discrimination groups. No similar difference was found with errors as the dependent measure, and no significant between group differences were found during the response shifts. The conclusion was drawn that the extra-ocular hypothesis could not account for the significant difference.
