Analysis of structural characteristics show that the parameters of stereotyped behaviour (percentage of time, bout length and bout length variability) were highly correlated. Analysis of environmental characteristics found that stereotyped behaviours were more likely to occur under conditions of low stimulation and less likely during conditions involving social contact.Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds | |
