The establishment of the department of psychiatry in the Mount Sinai Hospital
A conflict between neurology and psychiatry and controversies about psychoanalysis played an important role in the establishment of psychiatry in the general hospital. This article reviews the impact of this conflict on the establishment of an independent Department of Psychiatry in the Mount Sinai Hospital in New York during the first half of the twentieth century. A unique opportunity is provided to consider the relationships and personalities …
Effect of Vagal Stimulation on the Mechanical Properties of the Lungs in Guinea Pigs
Vagal stimulation in the intact, unanesthetized guinea pig increased pulmonary resistance and decreased compliance. These findings indicate that stimulation of the vagus in the guinea pig produces bronchoconstriction. The changes in the mechanical properties of the lungs were the same as those previously found in guinea pigs exposed to an aerosol of histamine or in sensitized animals exposed to an aerosolized solution of antigen. These results su…
Effect of Nutrient upon the Sucking Behavior of Newborn Infants
Neonatal sucking behavior varies as a function of the nutrient used. Test feedings showed significant intertrial consistency and significant intrainfant reliability of repeated measures of newborn sucking for milk formula, but not of repeated measures of sucking for corn syrup solution. The findings emphasize the importance of the nutrient used in studies of sucking behavior
A Method of Measuring Sucking Behavior of Newborn Infants
An instrument is described which permits controlled and valid measurements of infant sucking behavior. The apparatus was applied to the investigation of the day-to-day changes of infant sucking within the first week of life. Changes in sucking behavior were found between the second and third days of life and were related to chronological age and not to a learning effect with the sucking instrument
Intensity of the Unconditional Stimulus as a Factor in Conditioning Out of Awareness
The findings of the present report demonstrate that the intensity of shock used as the US is an important parameter in the establishment of a conditioned-heart-rate response in which the subject is unaware of the CS-US connection. It was also found that there is a difference in the conditioned and generalized responses of subjects who verbally reported awareness of the CS-US relationship as contrasted with those who were unaware
Respiratory Variables in Response to a Pain-Fear Stimulus and in Experimental Asthma
Ventilatory variables and the mechanical properties of the lungs as response to a pain-fear stimulus, electric shock, and in experimental asthma were measured in the guinea pig. The respiratory pattern after exposure to electric shock was characterized by shortened inspiration and a prolonged expiratory phase. This pattern was similar to that observed in experimental allergic asthma. The mechanical properties of the lungs, however, were different…
Role of Odors in Asthma
The psychological role of odors in the etiology of asthma has been considered. A series of 25 asthmatic patients were interviewed in an attempt to determine if odors were related to the patients' asthma. Twenty-two of the 25 patients stated that odors precipitated asthmatic attacks. An analysis of the character of the odors revealed that these odors were for the most part anal derivatives. A series of 19 common odorous substances were presented i…
Learned Asthma in the Guinea Pig
Young male guinea pigs previously made sensitive to egg white responded to a spray of homologous antigen with a respiratory syndrome that bears a marked clinical resemblance to human bronchial asthma. A difference in susceptibility to attacks was found as well as a range of latency time in the onset of attacks in the animal population, suggesting inherent biological differences in disease reaction patterns. Four of the 6 guinea pigs who completed…
