Modification of stereotypic behavior in rhesus monkeys using videotapes, puzzlefeeders, and foraging boxes (1989)

Meunier, L. D., Dukting, J. T., Landi, M. S.

Abstract

Results of this study demonstrate that foraging boxes and puzzle feeders can reduce stereotypic behavior significantly [in single-housed subjects]. Audiovisual stimuli through videotapes were also useful environmental tools; however, some stereotypic behavior continued.
