Abstract

A rat was placed without her pups in an open T-shaped maze and maternal behavior stimulated by the presentation of pups. The pups were then removed and tone pulses (7 kHz, 14 kHz) and a tape recording of the pup's pain signal were simultaneously presented from different alleys of the maze. Preference was estimated by the predominate direction of sorties during random alternation of the sound sources. Preference for the pup's pain signal was found in eight rats.

摘要

将一只母鼠与其幼崽分开，放置在一个开放的T形迷宫中，通过呈现幼崽来激发母性行为。然后将幼崽移走，同时从迷宫的不同通道发出音调脉冲（7千赫、14千赫）以及幼崽疼痛信号的录音。通过声源随机交替时母鼠出击的主要方向来估计偏好。在八只大鼠中发现了对幼崽疼痛信号的偏好。
