Adey and his associates have asserted that theta electrical activity recorded from the hippocampus during learning and performance reflects the role of this structure in information processing, decision making and memory consolidation. This notion was recently questioned by Douglas (1967) who concluded that the tasks employed by Adey and his associates to assess theta activity were tasks which the lesion literature indicated do not requite hippocampal functioning to be learned. The present paper questions Douglas' assertion by describing studies in the lesion literature which demonstrate that the tasks used by Adey and his co-workers may actually require hippocampal functioning to be learned.

Douglas' reply to Bennett's criticism is discussed. The author concluded that Douglas may be correct in questioning Adey's hypothesis that hippocampal theta activity reflects the role of this structure in mediating the learning process but not on the basis of many of the arguments Douglas has made.
