The purpose of the writer was to determine the possible relationship between emotional behavior (defecation) and the speed of ambulatory activity (distance travelled per unit time). Each of 50 rats was observed individually in a round enclosure two minutes a day for 28 days. The results demonstrate a negative correlation between individual differences in defecating (emotional) behavior and individual differences in defecating (emotional) behavior and individual differences in ambulatory activity. Emotional rats were less active than non-emotional." This relationship suggests that whenever activity is of utility to the animal, emotionality will hinder adjustment; whenever activity is of disservice to the animal, emotionality will facilitate adjustment."(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
