Acquisition of noncorrective simultaneous matching by 11 rhesus monkeys varied a good deal, especially in the number of trials spent on position preference. When monkeys were required to transfer from color matching to form matching, there was a decrement in performance with only 2 of 10 subjects performing above chance during the first day of transfer, although most of the remaining animals performed above chance during the second day. The acquisition curves for form were more gradual than for color and the monkeys did not revert to a position preference during transfer. After 14 days of form matching the monkeys were retested on color matching and showed very high savings.

Foot Orthosis

The ability of foot care specialists to place a rearfoot at the subtalar neutral position is important for the care of patients who require foot orthosis prescription, fabrication, and management. Although some clinicians perform this procedure with the patient in the prone position, others prefer a seated or standing approach. This study examined whether patient position and preferred patient position influence the ability of clinicians to place a subject's rearfoot at the subtalar neutral position. The results suggest the following: a clinician's ability to find the subtalar neutral position is better with a seated subject; clinicians do not necessarily perform better assessments on a subject in a position corresponding to their patient position preference; and clinicians who prefer their patients prone generally have more flexible and reproducible observations. In addition, the findings suggest that the nature and relative importance of the tactile and visual cues used by clinicians to place a rearfoot at the subtalar neutral position warrant further exploration.
