作者测试了不同笼子尺寸对 10 只雌性和 10 只雄性食蟹猴行为的影响，将它们单独关在 5 种笼子尺寸（范围为常规尺寸的 20% 至 148%）中每一种中 2 周。在任何分析中，调节笼尺寸（尺寸小 23% 和尺寸大 48%）的行为都没有差异。两个最小尺寸的笼子的运动明显减少。异常行为仅发生 5% 的时间，并不会随着笼子尺寸的减小而增加，并且在近 3 年内没有显着变化。实验室环境中正常活动预算的破坏被证明是心理健康的有用指标。搬到一个新房间，或者在较小程度上搬进一个新的、干净的笼子，无论大小，都会导致第一晚的睡眠中断和第二天的活动抑制，尤其是自我梳理。
The authors tested the effects of varying cage size on the behavior of 10 female and 10 male Macaca fascicularis by singly caging them for 2 weeks in each of 5 cage sizes, ranging from approximately 20% to 148% of regulation size. Behavior in the regulation cage size, a size 23% smaller, and a size 48% larger did not differ in any analysis. Locomotion was significantly less in the 2 smallest cage sizes. Abnormal behavior occurred only 5% of the time, did not increase as cage size decreased, and did not change significantly over nearly 3 years. Disruption of the normal activity budget in the laboratory environment proved to be a useful indicator of psychological well-being. Moving to a new room and, to a lesser extent, moving into a new, clean cage, regardless of size, was associated with disrupted sleep the Ist night and suppressed activity, especially self-grooming, the next day.
