Rate of habituation to an enrichment device by rhesus macaques with lesions of the entorthinal cortex, hippocampal formation, or parahippocampal gyrus (1994)

Johnson, E. C., Killiany, R. J., Moss, M. B.

Abstract

Significant differences were found in the rate of habituation [to a rubber ball serving as enrichment] between animals with entorhinal or hippocampal lesions and normal control animals. This study addresses the special needs of monkeys with experimental cortical lesions and suggests that it may be beneficial to refine their daily enrichment program.
