Mouthing off about fish capture: Jaw movement in pinnipeds reveals the real secrets of ingestion
Determination of when and where animals feed and how much they consume is fundamental to understand their ecology and role in ecosystems.

A promising recent development proposes using a Hall sensor-magnet system, the inter-mandibular angle sensor ...

متن کاملUtilizing increased response effort to reduce chronic hand mouthing.
The effects of increased response effort on levels of hand mouthing, leisure engagement, and adaptive elbow flexion were investigated with 2 individuals who had been diagnosed with profound disabilities. Arm restraints designed to alter the amount of physical effort necessary to engage in hand mouthing were used. Results indicated that the treatment strategy reduced levels of hand mouthing but ...
متن کاملReduction of self-injurious hand mouthing using response blocking.

The results suggest research is warranted to delineate the behavioral process responsible for the effect of response blocking and to determine the procedure's long-term utility.
