Environmental enrichment of brown capuchins (Cebus apella)
No consensus exists about the quantity and variety of environmental enrichment needed to achieve an acceptable level of psychological well-being among singly housed primates. Behavioral and plasma and fecal cortisol measures were used to evaluate the effectiveness of four levels of toy and foraging enrichment provided to eight wild-caught, singly housed adult male brown capuchins (Cebus apella). The 16-week-long study comprised six conditions and…

Field Dependence, Academic Achievement, and Career Orientations
The relationships among field dependence, academic achievement, and career orientations were investigated. Two hundred and twenty-eight seniors and juniors from a selective “key” high school and two regular high schools in Shanghai, China, participated in this study. The Hidden Figure Test and a questionnaire assessing self-perceptions and career preferences were administered, and two achievement test scores were obtainedforaliparticipants. Field…
Strategy Development as a Function of the Amount of Relevant or Irrelevant Information
The study examined the relationship between the amount of relevant or irrelevant information and subjects' strategies. Subjects solved 16 conjunctive concept-learning problems which varied in terms of the amount and type of information. The study measured the focusing strategy, the number of choices to solution, and the time to solution. Analysis indicated focusing scores were highest when the amount of information was lowest and relevant informa…
