Saimiri Sciurea

Free acid was found in the fasting gastric contents of each of 13 squirrel monkeys studied. A comparison of gastric contents from unrestrained and restrained monkeys indicated that restraint significantly increased the free acid concentration. Over a 24-hr period, there was a decrease in volume, free acid and total acid concentration, and pepsin value of the gastric juice. Histamine (0.1 mg/kg hr, subcutaneously) produced a significant increase in free acid and total acid concentration, while the volume and pepsin values were not changed. Methacholine, at cumulative doses of 1.0 and 2.0 mg/kg, subcutaneously, produced a significant decrease in free and total acid concentration while the volume was not altered. Atropine, in cumulative doses of 8, 16, and 48 mg/kg, intraperitoneally, produced a significant fall in volume of gastric juice collected. However, free acid concentration was reduced only at the highest dose and total acid concentration was not changed by any of the doses tested.

Saimiri Sciurea

Interstimulus intervals of .5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0 sec. were compared for effectiveness in conditioning the blink reaction of the squirrel monkey ( Saimiri sciurea). Control groups receiving unpaired stimulation, CS-only, and UCS-only were run at each level of ISI. Statistically reliable evidence of conditioning was found in the acquisition data only at .5 sec., with the performance of all groups increasing as a function of ISI. Superior resistance to extinction in the paired group was also discernible only at .5 sec. although the combined performance in extinction of the paired and unpaired groups at 2.0 and 4.0 sec. exceeded that of the .5- and 1.0-sec. groups. A replication experiment using a within-subjects design magnified the interval effect in both acquisition and extinction. The results suggest the operation of pseudoconditioning and sensitization of spontaneous blinks in addition to revealing marked differences from human eyelid conditioning data, particularly in extinction.
