By using spreading depression to decorticate temporarily one hemisphere in rats, a learning trace was established in the opposite functional hemisphere. Spontaneous transfer of the engram from the trained hemisphere to the untrained hemisphere does not occur when both hemispheres are functional. If, however, the animal was allowed to make one reinforced response, complete transfer of the engram to the untrained hemisphere occurred.
通过利用扩散性抑制暂时使大鼠的一个半球去皮质，在相对的功能半球中建立了学习痕迹。当两个半球都有功能时，记忆痕迹不会自发地从训练过的半球转移到未训练的半球。然而，如果让动物做出一次强化反应，记忆痕迹就会完全转移到未训练的半球。
