Context 1: A+ B− | Context 2: A− B+ | |
---|---|---|
Complete reversal | A1 B0 | A0 B1 |
Partial reversal | A1 B0 | A0 B0 |
A1 B0 | A1 B1 | |
A1 B1 | A0 B0 | |
Generalization | A1 B0 | A1 B0 |
A1 B1 | A1 B1 | |
No learning | A0 B0 | A0 B0 |
A+ means that A odor was rewarded, and B− means that B odor was not rewarded. A1 means response toward odor A, and B0 means no response toward odor B. The expected response after context learning (Fig. 3A) toward A+ B− was A1 B0 in context 1 and toward A− B+ was A0 B1 in context 2. This is complete reversal. Apart from this, bees also showed partial reversal with correct responses only in one of two contexts. Bees also showed generalization with same responses in both contexts (A1 B0 or A1B1). Finally, bees that did not learn either context showed no response (A0 B0).
