Investigatory behavior

Geyer, M.A. Russo, P.V. Segal, D.S. and Kuczenski, R. Effects of apomorphine and amphetamine on patterns of locomotor and investigatory behavior in rats. Pharmacol Biochern Behav 28 393-399, 1987. [Pg.122]

Social recognition refers to the fact that an adult rat, when exposed to the same juvenile rat on two occasions, demonstrates that it has recognized the juvenile by a decrease in the amount of investigatory behavior on the second occasion. Absence of a decrease in investigatory behavior at the second occasion suggests that the adult rat has forgotten the juvenile. [Pg.37]

Under such conditions, a mature adult rat recognizes the juvenile as familiar, as indicated by a marked reduction in the duration of social investigatory behavior at E2. [Pg.38]

To understand whether chemicals are used by hermit crabs in signaling identity, it was first necessary to define a simple, noninvasive bioassay able to compare the behavior of the tested individuals in different contexts. These characteristics were found in the investigatory behavior, i.e., the response that hermit crabs display in... [Pg.306]

It will be instructive to review two studies that did obtain significant effects of chemical cues on orienting or investigatory behavior (i.e., Beauchamp et al., 1980 and Singer et al., 1980). [Pg.38]

Marmosets and tamarins possess a rich repertoire of chemosignaling behaviors. These patterns result in the application of a number of secretions and excretions to items in the environment, to the bodies of conspecifics and to their own bodies. Chemosignaling is associated closely with investigatory behaviors. Individuals of all species sniff and lick each other s bodies and scent glands in a number of sexual and spcial situations. Sniffing and occasional licking of scent marks deposited into the environment is also common (Christen, 1974 Epple,... [Pg.656]
