Erratum: Behavioral Thermoregulation
Science, 1961In the article "Behavioral thermoregulation," by B. Weiss and V. G. Laties [ Science 133, 1338 (28 Apr. 1961)], the third sentence of the legend to Fig. 5 (p. 1341) should have read "Rats 2-1, 4-NN, and 0-1 were also run at an intensity setting of 75 watts." In the published article, rat 3-1 was erroneously included

Behavioral Thermoregulation in Butterflies
Ecology, 1966Behavioral thermoregulation is well studied in reptiles but has not previously been known to exist in butterflies, where it seems to be widespread and perhaps universal. Like reptiles, butterflies are heliotherms, deriving their heat almost exclusively from the sun. For reception of heat they make much use of their wings. Blood circulates in the wings,

Taurine and Thermoregulation: Behavioral and Cellular Studies
1982According to the generally accepted model of thermoregulation, the temperature of the body is detected by thermosensitive neurons which bring autonomic and behavioral mechanisms into play to counteract any deviation from the optimal state.

Effect of sulfolane on behavioral and autonomic thermoregulation in the rat
Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, 1985Sulfolane (tetrahydrothiophene 1,1-dioxide), a commonly used extraction solvent, promotes rapid changes in the thermoregulatory system. Colonic temperature, skin temperature, metabolic rate, and preferred ambient temperature (Ta) were measured over an 8-h period in the Sprague-Dawley rat following an intraperitoneal injection of sulfolane at 800 mg/kg ...

Effect of triethyltin on autonomic and behavioral thermoregulation of mice
Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 1984The organotin compound, triethyltin (TET), produces toxic effects in a variety of physiological systems. Thermoregulatory control appears to be especially susceptible to TET toxicity, since TET administration has been shown to cause a pronounced hypothermia in rats.

Behavioral Thermoregulation and the Role of Melatonin in a Nocturnal Snake
Hormones and Behavior, 2002Daily and seasonal variations in hormone levels influence the complex interactions between behavior and physiology. Ectothermic animals possess the unique ability behaviorally to adjust body temperature (T(b)) to control physiological rate processes.

Reptile embryos are not capable of behavioral thermoregulation in the egg
Evolution & Development, 2017Reptile embryos have recently been observed moving within the egg in response to temperature, raising the exciting possibility that embryos might behaviorally thermoregulate analogous to adults. However, the conjecture that reptile embryos have ample opportunity and capacity to adaptively control their body temperature warrants further discussion ...

Effect of Light on Thermal Reinforcement in Behavioral Thermoregulation
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1973The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the effect (reinforcing or aversive) of the combination of light and heat for the presentation of thermal reinforcement in behavioral thermoregulation. The results obtained indicate that the light-heat reinforcement group requires significantly less reinforcers and bar-presses for reaching the learning ...

Behavioral thermoregulation in the California Sea Lion
Behavioral Biology, 1974Behavioral thermoregulation in the California sea lion, Zalophus californianus, was studied during the summers of 1970 and 1971 on San Nicolas and San Miguel Islands, California. Zalophus has a series of behavioral responses which correlates with the rate of radiant input.

New apparatus for studying behavioral thermoregulation in rats
Physiology & Behavior, 1998The operant system described here contains a box that can be convectively heated or cooled. A rat moves freely in the box. Its location is monitored photoelectrically while its deep body temperature is monitored by a telemetry system. In heat-escape experiments, hot air (40 degrees C) flows through the box.
