On a Unique Solution of a T-Maze Model Arising in the Psychology and Theory of Learning. (18th January 2022) - Turab, Ali
Abstract : In the form of a T, a T-maze is an experimental design in which each trial consists of decisions between two or more options. It contains choices with particular kinds of symmetries that have gained considerable attention in psychology and learning theories. One of the simplest mazes utilized by rats is the T-maze since it requires just a single point of preference. At a T-maze base, the mouse chooses to turn right or left to get food. This paper aims at analyzing the rat's behavior in such circumstances and proposing a suitable mathematical model for it. The existence and uniqueness of a solution to the proposed T-maze model are investigated by using the appropriate fixed point method.
