In the present study, we tested the spatial learning behavior of four different mouse strains (129/Sv, BALB/c, C57BL and Swiss) in a newly developed circular maze. The maze was based on the circular Barnes maze, which was initially developed for rats. Since mice do not readily enter holes in floor, additional reinforcers (positive and negative) or pretraining procedures have been used to train the animals....
