	Title	Heart rate responses to social interactions in free-moving rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta): a pilot study			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1999	Publication	Journal of comparative psychology (Washington, D.C. : 1983)	Abbreviated Journal	J Comp Psychol
	Volume	113	Issue	1	Pages	59-65
	Keywords	Animals; Behavior, Animal/physiology; Female; Grooming/physiology; Heart Rate/physiology; Macaca mulatta/physiology; Male; Movement/physiology; Pilot Projects; Social Behavior
	Abstract	Heart rate telemetry was explored as a means to access animal emotion during social interactions under naturalistic conditions. Heart rates of 2 middle-ranking adult females living in a large group of rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) were recorded along with their behavior. Heart rate changes during 2 types of interactions were investigated, while controlling for the effects of posture and activity. The risk of aggression associated with the approach of a dominant individual was expected to provoke anxiety in the approachee. This prediction was supported by the heart rate increase after such an approach. No increase was found when the approacher was a kin or a subordinate individual. The tension-reduction function of allogrooming was also supported. Heart rate decelerated faster during the receipt of grooming than in matched control periods.

	Title	Transfer of value from S+ to S- in simultaneous discriminations in humans			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1999	Publication	The American journal of psychology	Abbreviated Journal	Am J Psychol
	Volume	112	Issue	1	Pages	21-39
	Keywords	Adolescent; Adult; Animals; Color Perception; Columbidae; Conditioning, Classical; Discrimination Learning; Female; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Motivation; Orientation; Pattern Recognition, Visual; Psychomotor Performance; Reaction Time; *Transfer (Psychology)
	Abstract	When animals learn a simultaneous discrimination, some of the value of the positive stimulus (S+) appears to transfer to the negative stimulus (S-). The present experiments demonstrate that such value transfer can also be found in humans. In Experiment 1 humans were trained on 2 simple simultaneous discriminations, the first between a highly positive stimulus, A (1,000 points); and a negative stimulus, B (0 points); and the second between a less positive stimulus, C (100 points); and a negative stimulus, D (0 points). On test trials, most participants preferred B over D. In Experiments 2 and 3 the value of the 2 original discriminations was equated in training (A[100]B[0] and C[100]D[0]). In Experiment 2 the values of the positive stimuli were then altered (A[1,000]C[0]); again, most participants preferred B over D. In Experiment 3, however, when the values of B and D were altered (B[1,000]D[0]), participants were indifferent to A and C. Thus, the mechanism that underlies value transfer in humans appears to be related to Pavlovian second-order conditioning. Similar mechanisms may be involved in assimilation processes in social contexts.

	Title	Heart rate and behavioural responses of crib-biting horses to two acute stressors			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1999	Publication	The Veterinary Record	Abbreviated Journal	Vet. Rec.
	Volume	145	Issue	15	Pages	430-433
	Keywords	Acute Disease; Animals; Behavior, Animal/physiology; Female; Heart Rate/physiology; Horse Diseases/physiopathology; Horses/physiology/psychology; Male; Stereotyped Behavior/physiology; Stress/physiopathology/psychology/veterinary
	Abstract	The heart rate and behaviour of 14 adult saddle horses, eight crib-biters and six normal controls, were investigated. Initially, the relationship between crib-biting and heart rate was investigated while the horses were undisturbed. The horses were tested when restrained with a lip twitch, and assessed when they were exposed suddenly to the rapid inflation of a balloon. The heart rate of the crib-biters during crib-biting was lower than during other behaviours. The crib-biters had a higher overall mean heart rate (P<0.05) suggesting that they may have had a higher basal sympathetic activity. After the application of the twitch, all the horses had a transient increase in heart rate which returned to basal values more rapidly in the crib-biters. The crib-biters were less reactive to the lip twitch, five of the six investigated remaining calm, and after the release of the twitch, they spent more time nibbling (P<0.05) than the control horses. The crib-biters reacted more strongly to the inflation of the balloon (three of the six reacted), and after it had been inflated they spent more time walking in the box.

	Title	Behavior of stabled horses provided continuous or intermittent access to drinking water			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1999	Publication	American Journal of Veterinary Research	Abbreviated Journal	Am J Vet Res
	Volume	60	Issue	11	Pages	1451-1456
	Keywords	Aggression; Animal Husbandry; Animals; Behavior, Animal/physiology; Drinking Behavior; Feeding Behavior; Female; Horses/physiology/psychology; Housing, Animal; Pregnancy; Pregnancy, Animal/physiology/psychology; Social Behavior; Videotape Recording; *Water Supply
	Abstract	OBJECTIVE: To compare quantitative measures and clinical assessments of behavior as an indication of psychologic well-being of stabled horses provided drinking water continuously or via 1 of 3 intermittent delivery systems. ANIMALS: 22 Quarter Horse (QH) or QH-crossbred mares and 17 Belgian or Belgian-crossbred mares (study 1) and 24 QH or QH-crossbred mares and 18 Belgian or Belgian-crossbred mares (study 2). PROCEDURE: Stabled horses were provided water continuously or via 1 of 3 intermittent water delivery systems in 2 study periods during a 2-year period. Continuous 24-hour videotaped samples were used to compare quantitative measures and clinical assessments of behavior among groups provided water by the various water delivery systems. RESULTS: All horses had clinically normal behavior. Significant differences in well being were not detected among groups provided water by the various delivery systems. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Various continuous and intermittent water delivery systems can provide adequately for the psychologic well-being of stabled horses.

	Title	Food exploitation: searching for the optimal joining policy			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1999	Publication		Abbreviated Journal	Trends In Ecology And Evolution
	Volume	14	Issue	3	Pages	102-106
	Keywords
	Abstract	Commonly invoked foraging advantages of group membership include increased mean food intake rates and/or reduced variance in foraging success. These foraging advantages rely on the occurrence of 'joining': feeding from food discovered or captured by others. Joining occurs in most social species but the assumptions underlying its analysis have been clarified only recently, giving rise to two classes of model: information-sharing and producer-scrounger models. Recent experimental evidence suggests that joining in ground-feeding birds might be best analysed as a producer-scrounger game, with some intriguing consequences for the spatial distribution of foragers and patch exploitation.

	Title	Ancient diets, ecology, and extinction of 5-million-year-Old horses from florida			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1999	Publication		Abbreviated Journal	Science
	Volume	283	Issue	5403	Pages	824-827
	Keywords
	Abstract	Six sympatric species of 5-million-year-old (late Hemphillian) horses from Florida existed during a time of major global change and extinction in terrestrial ecosystems. Traditionally, these horses were interpreted to have fed on abrasive grasses because of their high-crowned teeth. However, carbon isotopic and tooth microwear data indicate that these horses were not all C4 grazers but also included mixed feeders and C3 browsers. The late Hemphillian Florida sister species of the modern genus Equus was principally a browser, unlike the grazing diet of modern equids. Late Hemphillian horse extinctions in Florida involved two grazing and one browsing species.

	Title	Systematic nonlinearities in the perception of temporal intervals			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1999	Publication	Journal of Experimental Psychology. Animal Behavior Processes	Abbreviated Journal	J Exp Psychol Anim Behav Process
	Volume	25	Issue	1	Pages	3-17
	Keywords	Animals; Attention; Awareness; Discrimination Learning; Male; Neural Networks (Computer); Nonlinear Dynamics; Rats; Rats, Sprague-Dawley; Sensory Thresholds; *Time Perception
	Abstract	Rats judged time intervals in a choice procedure in which accuracy was maintained at approximately 75% correct. Sensitivity to time (d') was approximately constant for short durations 2.0-32.0 s with 1.0- or 2.0-s spacing between intervals (n = 5 in each group, Experiment 1), 2.0-50.0 s with 2.0-s spacing (n = 2, Experiment 1), and 0.1-2.0 s with 0.1- or 0.2-s spacing (n = 6 in each group, Experiment 2). However, systematic departures from average sensitivity were observed, with local maxima in sensitivity at approximately 0.3, 1.2, 10.0, 24.0, and 36.0 s. Such systematic departures from an approximately constant d' are predicted by a connectionist theory of time with multiple oscillators and may require a modification of the linear timing hypothesis of scalar timing theory.

	Title	Laterality in animals: relevance to schizophrenia			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1999	Publication	Schizophrenia Bulletin	Abbreviated Journal	Schizophr Bull
	Volume	25	Issue	1	Pages	41-62
	Keywords	Adult; Animals; Cognition; Disease Models, Animal; Functional Laterality/physiology; Humans; Language; Motor Activity/physiology; Schizophrenia/*physiopathology
	Abstract	Anomalies in the laterality of numerous neurocognitive dimensions associated with schizophrenia have been documented, but their role in the etiology and early development of the disorder remain unclear. In the study of normative neurobehavioral organization, animal models have shed much light on the mechanisms underlying and the factors affecting adult patterns of both functional and structural asymmetry. Nonhuman species have more recently been used to investigate the environmental, genetic, and neuroendocrine factors associated with developmental language disorders in humans. We propose that the animal models used to study the basis of lateralization in normative development and language disorders such as dyslexia could be modified to investigate lateralized phenomena in schizophrenia.
