From principal components analysis of all learning tasks, GCAs (primary factor score) are plotted as a function of group wherein higher GCAs are indicated as higher factor score values. The imposition of a working memory training (group WMT) regimen promoted an enhancement of GCAs compared to animals that were exposed (EXP) to the training apparatus for an amount of time equivalent to the trained group, or remained in their home cages (HOME) throughout the experiment.
