Conditioned taste aversion and motion sickness in cats and squirrel monkeys.
The relationship between vomiting and conditioned taste aversion was studied in intact cats and squirrel monkeys and in cats and squirrel monkeys in which the area postrema was ablated by thermal cautery. In cats conditioned 7-12 months after ablation of the area postrema, three successive treatments with xylazine failed to produce either vomiting or conditioned taste aversion to a novel fluid....
متن کاملObservations of canal sickness and adaptation in chimpanzees and squirrel monkeys in a "slow rotation room".
I N AN EARLIER experiment s in which human subjects were exposed to bizarre patterns of angular acceleration in the "slow rotation room" (SRR), the syndrome of "canal sickness" was defined. The main symptoms characterizing this syndrome were headache, malaise, nausea, and apathy, associated with pallor, sweating, and often vomiting. Since these symptoms are believed to result indirectly from st...
متن کاملSociophysiology of Squirrel Monkeys
Primate sociophysiology is an emerging discipline concerned with understanding the proximate mechanisms that contribute to the generation and maintenance of species-typical social systems. Studies of squirrel monkeys illustrate that sociophysiological processes are more varied than is commonly assumed with respect to both the effective social dimensions that influence physiological function and...
متن کاملA predictive test for space motion sickness.
Eye torsion was examined in 13 astronaut subjects, tested during repeated episodes of 0 G and 1.8 G in parabolic flight aboard NASA's KC-135. Four findings are included. 1) A strong relationship between previous history of SMS and ocular torsional disconjugacy in novel gravitational states. 2) Responses were unchanged in 4 subjects retested a year later. 3) Ocular torsional disconjugacy scores ...
متن کاملThe susceptibility of rhesus monkeys to motion sickness.
The susceptibility of rhesus monkeys to motion sickness was investigated using test conditions that are provocative for eliciting motion sickness in squirrel monkeys. Ten male rhesus monkeys and ten male Bolivian squirrel monkeys were rotated in the vertical axis at 150 degrees/s for a maximum duration of 45 min. Each animal was tested in two conditions, continuous rotation and intermittent rot...
