Maturation of specific behavioral reactions were studied in 13-24-day-old rats born by females with prior maternal experience (group A) and maternally naive females (group B). The rats of group B showed later eyes opening and earlier maturation of grooming and manipulation than the group A rats. The development of behavioral reactions was found to be related with eye opening in the rats of group A and maturation of manipulation in group B rats. The results suggest that the maternal influence is a significant environmental factor, which affects the early postnatal development of rat pups.
对有过母性经验的雌性大鼠(A组)和无母性经验的雌性大鼠(B组)所生的13至24日龄大鼠的特定行为反应成熟情况进行了研究。B组大鼠睁眼较晚,梳理和操控行为的成熟则早于A组大鼠。发现A组大鼠的行为反应发展与睁眼有关,而B组大鼠的行为反应发展与操控行为的成熟有关。结果表明,母性影响是一个重要的环境因素,它会影响幼鼠出生后的早期发育。
