Chicks were hatched and raised in white or monochromatic sodium (589 nm) light. They were trained on a 590 (+) vs. 580 (-) nm successive discrimination. The combined results of two experiments indicated that rearing illumination did not affect discrimination acquisition. All subjects given generalization tests after discrimination training exhibited peak shifts that were equivalent for the two rearing conditions. The peak shifts exhibited by the monochromatically reared subjects represent maximum responding to stimuli they had not previously seen. This result further confirms the notion that behavioral control by the spectral dimension in birds is organized independently of differential early experience on that dimension.
小鸡在白色或单色钠光（589纳米）下孵化和饲养。它们接受了590（+）对580（-）纳米的连续辨别训练。两个实验的综合结果表明，饲养光照不影响辨别能力的获得。所有在辨别训练后接受泛化测试的受试者都表现出峰值转移，这在两种饲养条件下是等效的。单色饲养的受试者表现出的峰值转移代表了对它们以前从未见过的刺激的最大反应。这一结果进一步证实了这样一种观点，即鸟类在光谱维度上的行为控制是独立于该维度上不同的早期经验而组织起来的。
