Effects of neonatal handling on playfulness by means of reversal of the desire to play in rats (Rattus norvegicus).

Journal of comparative psychology (Washington, D.C. : 1983) - 1 Nov 2009

Aguilar Raúl, Caramés José M, Espinet Alfredo

Abstract excerpt

In the present study the authors sought to establish whether the range of effects of neonatal handling stimulation (H), that is, brief daily periods of infant isolation, could be extended to the domain of social motivation. With this aim, the authors studied the innate motivation to engage in rou...
