Tradition dictates that domestication is degenerative and that psychology is misled by research on the domestic rat. However, a review of the literature indicates that domestication is adaptive for conditions of captivity, so that some behaviors (eg, learning) may increase in potential while others (eg, sociality) are diminished via a raised threshold. Critical implications for psychology are that research is needed to define genetic and experiential components of domestication, and that domestic rats may be logical research models for civilized man.(3 p. ref.)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
