In rats, those behaviors include performance in obstruction boxes (Jenkins, 1928;Moss, 1924;Stone, Barker, & Tomlin, 1935;Warner, 1927), straight-alley running (Beach & Jordan, 1956;Sheffield, Wulff, & Backer, 1951;Ware, 1968), maze learning (Drewett, 1973;Eliasson & Meyerson, 1975;Hetta & Meyerson, 1978;Kagan, 1955;Meyerson & Lindstrom, 1973;Warner et al, 1991;Whalen, 1961), crossing of electrified grids (Moss, 1924), nose-pokes and other attempts to''get to''a potential sex partner behind a wire-mesh screen (Damsma, Pfaus, Wenkstern, Phillips,&Fibiger,1992;Pfaus,Damsma,Wenkstern,&Fibiger, 1995;Pfaus, Mendelson, & Phillips, 1990), digging through sand (Anderson, 1938), bar-pressing for a sex partner (Beck, 1971(Beck, , 1974(Beck, , 1978Beck & Chmielewska, 1976;French, Fitzpatrick, & Law, 1972;Jowaisas, Taylor, Dewsbury, & Malagodi, 1971;Larsson, 1956;Sachs et al, 1974;Schwartz, 1956) or for a cue light associated with the arrival of a sex partner (Everitt, 1990;, and psychomotor stimulation in anticipation of the arrival of a sex partner (Mendelson & Pfaus, 1989). To gain access to receptive females, male guinea pigs lean to run an alley (Seward & Seward, 1940), male pigeons learn to peck keys (Gilbertson, 1975), and male stickleback fish learn to swim through rings (Sevenster, 1973).…”
