I should attach no importance whatever to the quantitative estimate given in the table. The only fact of value so far is the evidence that from the first the chick reacts to all colors. In no case was there any random pecking at the white surface of the cardboard.

On a black background the same chicks reacted to all the colors.

II is a table of the results.
