- W2020721818 abstract "This study attempts to control thigmotaxis and centrifugal swing as the basic factor in the alternation behaviour of the meal worm, larvae of Tenebrio molitor. In order to eliminate these variables, alleyways of the mazes were essentially V-shaped in construction. As a result, centrifugal swing to one side or another is substantially reduced and since the construction of the maze guarantees contact on both sides of the organisms' body, thigmotaxis control in determining turning behaviour is eliminated. Four mazes were employed in this study. Two of the mazes had a 3 cm. alleyway from forced turn to T-choice. These mazes were mirror images of each other; the direction of forced turn being right for one and left for the other. Two of the mazes had a 6 cm. alleyway from forced turn to T-choice. These mazes were mirror images of each other. All mazes were pre-tested for bias by using only the T portion of the maze. The distribution of right and left turns in the pretest for all mazes did not differ significantly from chance. In the basic study, 512 meal worms were employed with N = 128 for each maze. In both the 3 cm. and 6 cm. maze (combined mirror image), the tendency to turn in the opposite direction from the forced turn was highly significant. The magnitude of the effect decreases significantly from the 3 cm. to the 6 cm. maze. These findings duplicate the original findings of Grosslight & Ticknor (1953). The results in relation to the concepts of reactive inhibition, the original hypothesis, and the alternate explanations of centrifugal swing and thigmotaxis are discussed." @default.
