The Use of the Morris Water Maze in the Study of Memory and Learning
Abstract
Although the Morris Water Maze (MWM) was introduced only a few years ago, this technique has gained wide popularity, as the large number of publications in which it is employed, testifies. A review of the literature reveals that a wide variety of technical variables were used by the various research groups employing the MWM. This review describes the major changes in research variables, i.e., environmental variables, various manipulations, and the effects of diet or age on performance. The general principles of learning as demonstrated by the MWM are discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
