title: The effect of noise and vibration on motor activity and behavioral tests in rats.
abstract: The investigations were carried out on 80 Albino rats. It was found that a single exposure to noise alone or noise coupled with vibratio;n increase locomotor and exploratory activities of the rats. On the other hand, repeated exposures to noise and low frequency vibration failed to change the exploratory activity and behavioral tests of rats. No significant differences were found between the effects of noise alone and associated with vibration.
