Motor Stereotypies

Seminars in Pediatric Neurology, 2009
Stereotypic movements are ubiquitous, occur in a variety of forms, and exist in different populations, ranging from individuals with autism to typically developing children. Although such movements are required to be restricted, repetitive, and purposeless, their definition and included activities remain broad and imprecise.

Motor stereotypy disorders

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2009
This review highlights recent advances in understanding the clinical features, prevalence, and outcomes of motor stereotypy disorders in typically developing children.Longitudinal data indicate that stereotypies in children with normal intelligence show an early age of onset, chronicity, and high prevalence of comorbid difficulties, including tics ...

Stereotypy in neocortical microcircuits

Trends in Neurosciences, 2002
A central debate regarding neocortical function concerns the degree to which the underlying microcircuitry is stereotypically organized. Stereotypy reflects invariance in structure and function, as a result of common genetic templates and environmental conditions, whereas uniqueness can be caused by genetic variations, differences in environmental ...

Stereotypies in caged canaries

Animal Behaviour, 1967
Summary Two common repetitive stereotypies in caged canaries are described. These are labelled, some-what descriptively, as spot-picking and routetracing. Stereotypies in these canaries were counted in 5-min observation periods (not including time spent by the birds in feeding, preening, and singing).

Stereotypy in monkeys and humans

Psychological Medicine, 1982
SynopsisStereotyped movements are described in monkeys and humans and are classified as arising from constraint, sensory deprivation in infancy, amphetamine treatment or psychotic states. It is argued that, with the exception of cage stereotypies, stereotyped behaviour is evidence of abnormality in the nervous system consequent upon distorted ...

Functional (psychogenic) stereotypies

Journal of Neurology, 2017
Functional (psychogenic) movement disorders (FMDs) may present with a broad spectrum of phenomenology including stereotypic movements. We aimed to characterize the phenomenology of functional stereotypies and compare these features with those observed in 65 patients with tardive dyskinesia (TD). From a cohort of 184 patients with FMDs, we identified 19

Schedule-induced stereotypy

Research in Developmental Disabilities, 1992
The phenomena of the induction and entrainment of adjunctive behaviours was investigated in eight people with severe or profound mental retardation who exhibited stereotypic behaviours. The occurrence of collateral behaviours was investigated under extinction and massed reinforcer baselines and a variety of periodic or intermittent schedules of ...

Stereotypy and Intermittent Reinforcement

Science, 1961
Three pigeons were trained to peck at a horizontally oriented rubber strip 10 in. long. The spatial distribution of responding along this strip is found to be nonrandom when every peck is reinforced with food. The degree of nonrandomness increases markedly when the pecking is intermittently reinforced.

Understanding equine stereotypies

Equine Veterinary Journal, 1999
Summary It is frequently asserted that equine stereotypies, such as crib‐biting, wind‐sucking and weaving, are caused by boredom. However, this explanation is too general to be of practical use in discerning the causes of each stereotypy or in devising management practices to prevent their occurrence.
