A food satiation and oral hygiene punishment program to suppress chronic rumination by retarded persons.

Food satiation and oral hygiene punishment were used to treat the non-life-threatening rumination of two institutionalized profoundly retarded persons. Satiation consisted of allowing the clients to eat until a satiation criterion of food refusal was achieved or until two full meal portions were consumed. The oral hygiene procedure consisted of cleansing the clients' teeth and gums with Listerine for 2 minutes following each instance of rumination. In the formal study, three conditions--baseline, satiation, and satiation plus oral hygiene--were used following the lunch meal in a multiple-baseline across-subjects design. One client's rumination decreased from an average of 89.5% during baseline to 48.8% during the satiation condition and to 3% during satiation plus oral hygiene. The second client's rumination decreased from a baseline average of 49.9% to 7.9% during satiation and to 1.4% during satiation plus oral hygiene. Generalization probes taken following the breakfast and dinner meals showed a systematic decline in rumination as the various conditions were implemented following the lung meal. In the 16-week follow-up, rumination was treated following all meals with oral hygiene, and satiation was used at one of the daily meals for 1 week on a rotating basis. Rumination remained at a near-zero level following all meals throughout the follow-up. Thereafter, a maintenance program was conducted by the ward staff. The satiation plus oral hygiene punishment treatment program appears to be an immediate, effective, enduring, and humane method of treating the non-life-threatening rumination of retarded individuals.

Beliefs about the satiating effect of bread with spread varying in macronutrient content.

Beliefs about the satiating effect of foods varying in contents of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and fibre were investigated by face-to-face interviews with a random telephone sample of 101 subjects. Respondents were presented with photographs of two slices of bread covered with common spreads. Fibre level was manipulated by using white bread or wholemeal bread. Levels of proteins, fats and carbohydrates were manipulated by using different kinds of spread. Low and high levels of proteins, fats and carbohydrates had similar energy contents. The results showed that protein-rich spreads (lean meat products) and high-fibre (wholemeal) bread were believed to have a strong satiating effect. The satiating effect of high-fat spreads (butter, bacon) was believed to be much smaller, whereas the sweet carbohydrate spreads (jam, honey) were believed to have no satiating effect.

A smoking satiation procedure with reduced medical risk.

Tested the efficacy of a smoking satiation procedure with reduced medical risk. As predicted, experimental taste satiation (holding smoke in the mouth with occasional inhalations) suppressed habitual smoking as effectively as rapid smoking satiation. In view of the extensive relapse problems that follow the singular application of aversive conditioning procedures, follow-up hypnosis and counseling treatments were applied in order to assist Ss in maintaining smoking cessation. At the time of the 6-month follow-up contact, confirmed abstinence reports for 66% of all Ss who received treatment were obtained.

Necker cube reversal: sensory or psychological satiation?

24 students, 5 male and 19 female, were used in a repeated-measures factorial design to test two theories of Necker cube reversal. It was hypothesized that cubes with complete contours and high figure-ground contrast would reverse at faster rates than cubes with incomplete contours and low contrast if a sensory satiation theory (Köhler & Wallach, 1944) is valid, but at the same rate if the satiation of an orientation theory (Orbach, Ehrlich, & Health, 1963) is correct. High contrast was achieved with black contours on white grounds and vice versa, low contrast with gray contours on black and white grounds. Cubes with complete contours, and stimuli in which only the eight corners of the cube were visible through 18-mm holes superimposed upon the complete cube, provided the contour variable. The results showed a higher reversal rate for cubes with complete contours but no contrast effect. The results were interpreted as supporting a sensory satiation theory.

Food satiation as a procedure to decelerate vomiting.

A food satiation procedure was used in two experiments to decelerate the frequency of vomiting responses in two profoundly retarded adults who exhibited well-defined vomiting-ruminatory response chains. For several years prior to this study, the subjects had exhibited a history of vomiting behavior. Satiation was accomplished during regular meals and consisted of allowing the subjects to eat until a satiation criterion of food refusal was achieved. The results revealed a 94 percent reduction of vomiting in Experiment 1 and a 50 percent response reduction in Experiment 2. Ten-day follow-up sessions indicated that the response reduction was maintained in both experiments. In Experiment 1 the subject exhibited a 4.99 kg weight gain at the 10-day follow-up with a total of 13.61 kg weight gain at a 4-week posttreatment weight check.

Pattern of drinking and feeding produced by hypothalamic norepinephrine injection in the satiated rat.

Injection of norepinephrine into the perifornical region of the anterior hypothalamus elicited both drinking and feeding in satiated rats. Analysis of these behaviors revealed the following: (1) Both responses were dose-dependent, occurring at doses at least as low as 0.5 mug. (2) The drinking response (1-4 ml) had a latency of around 1.5 min and a duration of 2-3 min. It was followed within a minute or two by eating (2-4 g) that lasted approximately 20 min. It was also followed by a period of drinking suppression that lasted approximately 60 min. (3) Satiation from the ingestion process appeared to be a primary factor in terminating the elicited feeding response, whereas a time-related factor was important in terminating the elicited drinking. (4) These ingestive responses produced by noradrenergic stimulation of the anterior perifornical hypothalamus were found to bear striking similarities to the rat's natural feeding behavior and premeal component of his natural food-associated drinking behavior. (5) These noradrenergically elicited responses could not be observed with lateral hypothalamic stimulation, while only feeding was elicited by ventromedial hypothalamic stimulation. (6) The drinking induced by central noradrenergic stimulation, in contrast to that induced by peripheral beta-adrenergic stimulation, was unaffected by nephrectomy.

Satiation and sensory deprivation combined in smoking therapy: some case studies and unexpected side-effects.

Two promising techniques for smoking reduction, sensory deprivation and stimulus satiation, were applied in combination to five smokers. All were successful initially in achieving abstinence and four ultimately in maintaning abstinence. The issue of possible side-effects is worth considering. Quitting per se and both satiation and sensory deprivation may be stressful and as a result may potentially produce negative side effects. The observation of positive side-effects in these cases balances this possibility to some extent.

GABAA receptors in the amygdala: role in feeding in fasted and satiated rats.

The purpose of this study was to clarify further the site of action in the amygdala as well as functional characteristics of feeding in response to two GABA receptor agonists. Guide cannulae for microinjection were implanted stereotaxically in the rat just above the central nucleus of the amygdala (CNA). Microinjections of 0.05, 0.25, 0.5 or 1.0 nmol muscimol, a GABAA-selective receptor agonist, produced a dose- and time-dependent decrease of food intake in both the satiated and fasted rat. The bilateral injection of muscimol into the amygdala was more effective than a unilateral injection during the first 2 h, although the overall effects were similar. Microinjection of 0.1 nmol bicuculline methiodide, a GABAA receptor antagonist, into the CNA significantly blocked this inhibitory effect of 0.05 and 0.5 nmol muscimol again in both the satiated and fasted rat. Doses of 0.05, 0.5, 5.0 and 10.0 nmol of the selective GABAB agonist, baclofen, injected into homologous sites in the CNA did not alter food intake. These findings support the viewpoint that the amygdala and its central nucleus comprise a pivotal region involved in the mechanisms underlying the control of feeding behavior. Further, it is envisaged that hypophagic or anorexic responses are induced through the activation of GABAA receptors by the presynaptic release of GABA from neurons which form a component of the anatomical system for hunger and satiety.

Satiation therapy: a procedure for reducing deviant sexual arousal.

Two single-case experiments demonstrated the efficacy of satiation therapy with adult males who had long-standing deviant sexual interests. The procedure involves the pairing of prolonged masturbation (1 hour) with the verbalization by the patient of his deviant sexual fantasies and in both cases the designs permitted the attribution of control over aberrant responding to the satiation therapy. The results are discussed in terms of the possible active ingredients of the procedure.

The effects of (+)-amphetamine and fenfluramine on feeding in starved and satiated mice.

(+)-Amphetamine and fenfluramine depressed both the food intake during the first 2 h of feeding of mice adapted to feed between 12:00 and 15:00 daily and the food intake of free feeding mice between 24:00 and 02:00 (lighting on, 09:00-21:00) in a dose-dependent manner. Higher doses of each drug were needed to produce a significant depression in the latter case. However, (+)-amphetamine (0.5-2 mg/kg) markedly increased the negligible food intake of free feeding mice between 12:00 and 14:00, an effect which rapidly disappeared at higher doses. Fenfluramine at doses up to 40 mg/kg had no effect on the feeding of these mice. Nevertheless, as caffeine (10-40 mg/kg) also increased feeding, behavioural arousal might be an important factor in this anomalous feeding response, although a specific action by (+)-amphetamine and caffeine on the feeding centres of the satiated mouse cannot be ruled out.

Ingestion in the satiated rat: role of alpha and beta receptors in mediating effects of hypothalamic adrenergic stimulation.

Anterior perifornical hypothalamic injection of l-norepinephrine in satiated rats elicits a brief, vigorous drinking response followed within a minute or two by a vigorous feeding response. These adrenergically elicited responses, which bear striking similarities to a rat's naturally motivated ingestive behaviors, were examined in the present series of experiments. It was found that: (1) Both responses could be elicited by perifornical hypothalamic injection of l-epinephrine, which was actually found to be more potent than l-norepinephrine. In contrast, only feeding could be elicited by the alpha-stimulant metaraminol, and neither feeding nor drinking could be elicited by hypothalamic injection of d-norepinephrine. l-isoproterenol, or dopamine. (2) The threshold doses of l-epinephrine for eliciting reliable ingestive responses were quite low, namely, 0.8 nmole (0.15 mug) for drinking and 0.2 nmole (0.04 mug) for feeding. (3) Pharmacological analysis of the ingestive behaviors induced by l-norepinephrine or l-epinephrine indicated that the eating response was mediated by alpha-adrenergic receptors, whereas the drinking response involved the synergistic action of both alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors. No evidence for the involvement of dopaminergic or cholinergic (muscarinic) receptors was obtained. (4) A third adrenergically elicited phenomenon, namely, a suppression of drinking, was observed during and after the period of induced feeding. Analysis of this effect revealed its dependence solely upon alpha-adrenergic receptor activity.

Comparison of the cycloheximide and food satiation effects on a discrimination task.

The effects of intraventricular cycloheximide (CHX) pretreatment were examined on the ability of rats to recall a light position discrimination task. The CHX pretreatment used inhibited brain protein synthesis at the time of training by 71%. Following treatment with CHX the animals demonstrated no retention of the task 18 hr later. Free feeding for 24 hr prior to treatment with cerebro-spinal-like fluid (CSF) produced similar effects as CHX. It is proposed that the amnesic effect of CHX in this behavioral paradigm may be a nonspecific action resulting from decreased motivation. Both the CHX-treated and satiated animals exhibited low responding levels during training, despite comparable behavioral activity levels for the CHX- and CSF-treated groups.

Increasing the rate of ethanol consumption in food- and water-satiated rats.

The effects of food satiation, ethanol concentration, and the schedule of ethanol availability on the rate of ethanol consumption were investigated in rats. In Experiment 1 separate groups were exposed to 6.2 or 12.5% w/v ethanol and unlimited access to food. The food and ethanol were available concurrently for one to three hours daily. After approximately 15 sessions unlimited food was available whenever ethanol was not available. The rate of ethanol consumption was positively related to ethanol concentration and negatively related to duration of ethanol availability. In Experiment 2 similar procedures were followed, except rats had unlimited access to food throughout the experiment. The results were similar to Experiment 1. In Experiment 3 separate groups were exposed to 6.2 and 12.5% w/v ethanol for one hour every other day; unlimited food was available throughout the experiment. The results were similar to the one-hour availability groups in Experiments 1 and 2. In all experiments ethanol consumption rates increased to levels above baseline and above the usual ethanol metabolic rate found in rats. The results demonstrated new combinations of ethanol availability and non-availability durations that were sufficient to significantly increase the rate of ethanol consumption.

A first order approximation of satiation time: (IRT)2/Rt.

Habituation, satiation, adaptation, and boredom are a few of the words used to label the behavioral consequences of a fundamental operation: repeated and protracted presentation of a stimulus. The cumulative measure of the response associated with that stimulus is expected to display an inflection at some time Ti after which the slope approaches zero. Ti can be estimated by dividing the square of the interresponse time (IRT)2 by the duration of the response associated with reinforcement (Rt), where Rt is expressed in the nearest whole temporal unit of interresponse time. Calculated TiS for habituation to the same sexual, aggressive, or social stimuli are compatible with general observation.

Satiation in cutaneous saltation.

The extent of cutaneous saltation (the illusory displacement of a tap presented to one skin locus by another tap occurring close in time at another locus) was modified by a "preconditioning" stimulus presented prior to and at a site distant from the saltatory test pattern. The 10-sec vibratory preconditioning (PC) stimulus appears to be analogous to inspection figures that "satiate" the perceptual field in experiments on figural aftereffects, producing changes in the perceived size, position, or shape of subsequent stimuli. The direction of displacement of the saltatory phantom was always away from the locus of the prior PC stimulus, consistent with results observed in studies of visual and kinesthetic aftereffects. Th- amount of repulsion and the rate at which the saltatory phantom returned to its initial position depend on the intensity, locus, and number of PC stimuli. As with figural aftereffects, these results resist explanation by peripheral mechanisms such as adaptation.

The effect of food and water deprivation and satiation on recognition.

Food and water deprived and satiated subjects, as well as control subjects, were shown words presented tachistoscopically for .01 sec until word recognition. Five food-relevant, five water-relevant, and five neutral (animal) words of high string frequency were matched for letter confusability and letter predictability. Analyses of the data, in terms of number of presentations until recognition as well as number of words recognized at selected presentations, revealed that the amount but not the type of deprivation significantly altered word recognition. Moreover, the effect of motivation was significant already on the first slide presentation, while the effects of word characteristics (word category and generated value) occurred only after a number of presentations.

Increased resistance to satiation in diazepam-treated pigs.

Sated pigs, having a previous history of operant responding according to a CRF schedule, resumed responsing when put back in the Skinner box after 1 mg/kg diazepam. This effect did not appear to be related to the disinhibition of an extinction process.

Changes in gastro-intestinal serotonin content associated with fasting and satiation.

Rats fasted for 24 h were fed for 3 h, after which time food was removed. Food intake decreased serotonin levels in the stomach and duodenum by 30 and 40%, respectively. These changes persisted for about 3 h. Food intake did not change tryptophan content in the stomach, while, in the duodenum, tryptophan level rose by 100% at the end of the feeding period and remained elevated for about 9 h.
