Pharmacological Probes in Primate Social Behavior

  • Chapter
Animal Models of Depression

Abstract

The appropriateness of interaction with other individuals constitutes a significant factor in the determination of the diagnosis and treatment response in major psychiatric categories. Therefore, animal models of these disorders which include evaluation of social behavior add an important dimension to the model. Non-human primates have been used as subjects in most social studies because of their well documented social structure and noted behavioral similarities to humans.
