Popis: Rats were given 30 shock escape trials with a 3-sec delay of shock offset. A light cue presented during the delay facilitated performance significantly more when the light was located over the lever as opposed to being located on the opposite wall. It was concluded that orientation, in part, plays a significant role in determining the extent to which cues facilitate delayed-reward performance.
