Abstract

Play fighting during the juvenile period has been shown to be an important experience for the development of sociocognitive skills and the underlying neural mechanisms that support them. Various paradigms have been used to deprive rats of play while still providing social contact. We used the paradigm of rearing a playful rat with a low-playing Fischer 344 (F344) partner to limit the play experienced by Long Evans (LE) rats during the juvenile period. This rearing paradigm has previously been shown to cause sociocognitive impairments in adulthood. In the present paper, we examined the play of same sex LE rats with LE or F344 partners at the peak juvenile period (around 35 days of age). F344 rats launched fewer playful attacks and when attacked, defended atypically compared to how LE do in LE-LE pairs. Playing with an F344 partner afforded LE rats fewer opportunities to engage in prolonged wrestling and fewer opportunities to ward off counterattacks (in which the defending rat becomes the attacker). In addition, there are fewer vocalizations emitted during the encounters in LE-F344 pairs and the types of calls most often emitted differed to those between LE-LE pairs. The altered play and communication experiences were equally present in male and female pairs. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that, in such rearing paradigms, it is impoverished play experiences in the juvenile period that lead to impaired sociocognitive skills in adulthood.

  • Identifying that turn taking, as shown by role reversals, is a key feature of rough-and-tumble play that promotes the development of socio-cognitive skills has been important for engineering therapeutic play contexts that promote those skills in children.

    “Indeed, identifying that turn taking, as shown by the occurrence of role reversals, is a key feature of RTP that promotes the development of socio-cognitive skills (Pellis et al., 2019; Stark et al., 2021), has been important for engineering therapeutic play contexts that similarly promote the development of those skills in children (e.g., Diamond et al., 2007; Nijhoff et al., 2018).”

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.
