In two separate experiments, pigeons trained binocularly to peck a key on which an oblique line (e.g., 60 degrees counter-clockwise rotation from horizontal) was projected yielded bi-modal angularity generalization gradients in extinction, with peaks of responding at both the training stimulus and its mirror image (in this case 120 degrees ). This mirror-image transfer effect may be analogous to an "octave effect" in auditory generalization, but Mello's finding of a mirror-image reversal transfer effect following monocular training in pigeons suggests an alternative interpretation.
在两项独立实验中,鸽子经双眼训练后啄击投射有一条斜线(例如,相对于水平方向逆时针旋转60度)的按键,在消退期产生了双峰角度泛化梯度,在训练刺激及其镜像(在这种情况下为120度)处均出现反应峰值。这种镜像转移效应可能类似于听觉泛化中的“八度效应”,但梅洛在鸽子单眼训练后发现的镜像反转转移效应提出了另一种解释。
