CognitionWall™ Reversal Learning (Cognitive Flexibility)
In contrast to the CognitionWall™ discrimination learning test, the CognitionWall™ reversal learning test involves rewarding the mice with food when they choose to pass through one of the switched three entrances, representing reversal. The rate at which the mouse gains a relative preference for the newly rewarded entrance is used as a measure of reversal learning.
During initial Discrimination Learning (DL) mice have to enter through the left entrance in order to receive a food reward behind the CognitionWallTM.
During Reversal Learning (RL) mice have to reverse and enter through the right entrance to receive a food reward behind the CognitionWallTM, taxing their cognitive flexibility.
