Effect of pair housing on operant behavior task performance by rhesus monkeys (2003)

Hotchkiss, C. E., Paule, M. G.

Abstract

In conclusion, pair-housing monkeys is feasible for studies involving operant behavior testing as a model for a variety of complex brain functions. However, housing condition may affect some test parameters, and this effect must be taken into consideration during experimental design. [p. 40].
