Abstract
The possibility was examined that the delay-dependent increase in delayed matching-to-sample (DMS) and delayed-response (DR) errors induced by prefrontal cooling (FC) could be modified by changes in ambient illumination. Monkeys were tested in normal room lighting and in the dark with intratrial delays of 1–32 sec during FC and normal brain temperature (no cooling, NC). The results showed that FC increased errors and motor activity on trials with long intratrial intervals but had little effect with short delays. Ambient illumination had little effect during either FC or NC. The results are discussed in terms of relative differences in novelty of lighting or darkness with respect to the level of illumination during training.
