[Organization of early forms of kitten behavior after partial oral deprivation].
Study of development of early forms of behaviour was carried out on intact kittens of the first month of life, who endured in 5 days age uni- and bilateral sections of the lingual nerve, and on shame-operated and undernourished animals. It was shown that bilateral deafferentation caused significant disturbance of alimentary behaviour at the stage of sucking, manifested in disturbance of natural sucking and appearance of shame sucking, i.e. rhythmic sucking movement without nipple grasping. At the one-month age, in conditions of artificial feeding, natural sucking in operated animals was restored and the shame one disappeared. Bilateral section of the lingual nerve led to acceleration of ripening of sensory and motor systems and accelerated development of homing, exploratory and playing behaviour. Possible role is discussed of sensory trigeminal nuclei neurones in organization of normal patterned sucking and at limited sensory inflow. It is suggested that elimination of sensory input developing in the norm earlier than others, changes natural terms of other channels development, what accelerates the change of early behaviour forms.
