Abstract
The effect of cues paired with reward on the first-trial choice behavior of rats in a Y-maze was examined using the techniques of noncontingent reward in the presence of goal (GB) cues. Adequate perception of GB cues on the test trial was assured by using relatively short maze arms. Significant choice of the arm leading to GB cues was interpreted as suggesting an acquired motivation interpretation of the effect on behavior of cues paired with reward.
