Results Experiment 1 – the effects of interference during consolidation on spatial memory formation Performance of the animals during acquisition of the spatial task showed a marginally significant difference between the acquisition rates of WW and CW animals (ANOVA for repeated measures, F (1,37) = 4, p = 0.052), however, no difference was found between the acquisition rates during the last four trials ( t (37) = 1.32; N.S.; Figure 2 A), indicating that these animals have eventually acquired the task to the same level.
