Figure 8. Effects of Isolation Rearing on Target Win-Stay and Lose-Shift Ratios in the Within-Session Probabilistic Learning Task.
During the initial learning phase, rats increased their target win-stay ratio over time (a); there were no systematic changes over time in target lose-shift ratio (b). During the reversal-learning phase, there was a trend (p = 0.089) towards lower target win-stay ratios (c) in isolates compared to socials. All rats decreased their target lose-shift ratio (d) over time during the reversal-learning phase. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM.
