Abstract
3 chickens were trained on a go/no-go discrimination in which S+ was three white dots in a vertical array on a red background and S– was three white dots in a horizontal array on a green background. The nine combinations of red, yellow and green backgrounds with vertical, 45° and horizontal arrays of dots were presented in extinction. A conjoint-measurement analysis was discussed, and the orientation and color dimensions were shown to be independent and additive.
