Abstract

A schema for systematic inquiry into different patterns of copulatory behavior in male mammals i proposed. Three stages in the development of a complete analysis are isolated: classification, elaboration, and experimental analysis. A classification schema based on four attributes is proposed. Species may or may not display a lock, thrusting during intromissions, multiple intromissions, and multiple ejaculations. Literature on species-typical patterns is reviewed in terms of these attributes.

Around 40% of BARR and ISO males did not ejaculate in either test of copulatory behavior, a significant deviation from CTRL males (12.5%) and from the expected distribution of non-ejaculators (~10%).
“Around 40% of BARR and ISO males did not ejaculate in either test of copulatory behavior, a significant deviation from what was seen in CTRL males (12.5%) and from the expected distribution of non-ejaculators (~10%) based on decades of research on male rat sexual behavior (Dewsbury, 1972; Pattij et al., 2005; Portillo et al., 2006).”

The expected distribution for control animals is 90% ejaculators and 10% non-ejaculators/duds.

Around 10% of all sexually mature male rats are duds (sexually sluggish), meaning that they do not ejaculate in the course of a 20-30 min assay with a sexually receptive female.
“It is well known in the field of rodent sexual behavior that around 10% of all sexually mature male rats will be “duds” (otherwise known as “sexually sluggish”), meaning that they do not ejaculate in the course of a 20–30 min assay with a sexually receptive female (Dewsbury, 1972; Pattij et al., 2005; Portillo et al., 2006).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
