“…In a wheel maze, this ability to set up and use spatial relations allows the hamsters to take short cuts (Chapuis, 1982). Actually, many studies have been concerned with spatial memory or “cognitive maps” (Tolman, 1948) in rats using maze learning (see reviews in Blancheteau, 1969; Munn, 1950). All these experiments converge to demonstrate that rats are able to constitute a spatial map of the environment with which they become familiar; this ability to set up and use spontaneously simple spatial relations appears to be shared by several species of rodents.…”

Gerbils were allowed to explore an arena containing an object. The external reference frame was reduced to a single visual landmark. After habituation, gerbils entered the arena from a new direction. A second object, identical to the first, was placed symmetrically with regards to the landmark. The second object was explored more than the first, a result showing that it was differentiated from the first on the basis of its location. This result suggests that during the course of exploration the gerbils had learned about the spatial features of the experimental situation.
