Résumé
"The observation that strychnine enhances learning was first made almost a half-century ago by Lashley (1917), but the phenomenon was not intensively studied until recently. McGaugh and his co-workers have conducted several investigations of the effect of strychnine sulphate and strychnine-like compounds on learning. They have used a variety of learning tasks, including a Lashley III alley maze, 14-unit T-maze, and successive and simultaneous discrimination problems. Doses of strychnine have varied from 0.33 mg/kg to 1.0 mg/kg. Their performance measures have included number of errors, number of trials to criterion, running speed, and the like."--
