T maze

a maze shaped like the letter T, consisting of a start box and a stem that leads to a choice between left and right arms, one being incorrect and the other leading to the goal box. More complicated mazes can be formed by joining several T mazes in sequence. A variant of this apparatus is the Y maze; both are used in experiments on animal cognition.
