N1 - Funding Information:
A step-through passive avoidance apparatus similar to that described by Jarvik and Kopp \[7\] was used. Briefly, the apparatus consisted of a Plexiglas covered V-shaped trough, which was partitioned by a guillotine door into a small illuminated start chamber and a larger darkened compartment. Panels of stainless steel formed the walls and floor of the trough and served to deliver an a.c. footshock ~Send reprint requests to: Dr. Tibor Palfai, Psychology Department, Skytop Laboratories, M-15, NY 13210.

N2 - Reserpine produced amnesia for a one-trial passive avoidance task when given 2, 3, 4, 5 hr before but not when given 1, 8, 12, 24 hr or 30 min before, or immediately, 90 min or 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 12, 24 hr following training. The results were discussed in terms of the reserpine effect on biogenic amines and their possible role in memory formation.
