Curt Richter and regulatory physiology.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Curt Richter made seminal contributions to our understanding of a number of issues regarding the relationships between physiology and behavior. He was the first to conceptualize behavior as an aspect of regulatory physiology. These ideas developed from his work on behavioral responses to a variety of physiological perturbations. The classic example is Richter's demonstration of the development of avid sodium ingestion in response to urinary sodium loss after adrenalectomy. Some of Richter's ideas on the nature and underlying physiology of specific appetites maintain their influence and continue to stimulate active investigation. Others, focused on abilities to self-select balanced diets, have not borne the test of time or experimental challenge. As current research takes a more molecular focus, Richter's ideas on behavior in the service of the internal milieu maintain their currency, and the search for the molecular bases for these relationships should serve as a research focus.

WORKING IN THE LABORATORY of John B. Watson in the early 1920s, Curt P. Richter first observed the phenomenon of rats engaged in what would later be called food-anticipatory activity: “It is seen that immediately following the daily feeding period there is a period of relative inactivity lasting from four to five hours. . . . During the last two to three hours of the twenty-four the activity in...
