Monkeys were trained to respond in one way to a pair of solid objects when discrimination was by touch; in the opposite way, when by vision. These opposite habits are formed independently and can be used concurrently. The finding suggests that the neural systems responsible for tactile and visual learning are separate, even with a single pair of objects.
猴子经过训练,当通过触摸进行辨别时,对一对固体物体以一种方式做出反应;当通过视觉进行辨别时,则以相反的方式做出反应。这些相反的习惯是独立形成的,并且可以同时使用。这一发现表明,即使对于一对物体,负责触觉和视觉学习的神经系统也是分开的。
