TLDR
The validity of the Skinner box was assessed as a means of obtaining detailed records of feeding behaviour and a brief hypothesis concerning the control of food intake in the fowl was formulated.About:

Voluntary food intake and diet selection in farm animals.
TL;DR: Feeding behaviour feedback signals ruminant gastrointestinal tract metabolites and hormones central nervous control integrative theories of food intake control growth and fattening reproduction and lactation diet digestability and concentration of available energy specific nutrients affecting intake.

The metabolic basis of dual periodicity of feeding in rats
TL;DR: Evidence indicates that glucose uptake rate in tissues, which is modulated by fat synthesis and fat mobilization, affects the periodic onset of feeding and the difference between nocturnal and diurnal postprandial satiety.

Patterns of daily food intake in growing pigs
L. C. M. de Haer,J. W. M. Merks +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, food intake patterns of growing pigs given food ad libitum in individual and group housing were derived from food intake recordings with IVOG®-stations, based on survival analysis theory, intervals between visits shorter than 5 min were regarded as within-meal intervals and these visits were grouped into meals.

Feeding and drinking patterns in young pigs
Bigelow Ja,T. R. Houpt +1 more
TL;DR: Feeding and drinking patterns of six immature female pigs, weighing from 10 to 130 kg, operantly obtaining feed and water at a fixed ratio of 10 were determined and it was found by log survivorship analysis that 10 min was the minimum interbout interval defining separate eating bouts.

Optimal Meal Size in Hummingbirds
TL;DR: Sensitivity analysis revealed that model predictions may be much influenced by parameter values potentially under physiological and/or behavioral control by a hummingbird, and it is suggested that this control will eventually prove explicable by an optimality model of bird behavior.

Rapid absorption of glucose in the intestinal tract of the rat after ingestion of a meal
TL;DR: Blood glucose-level in the unanesthetized, undisturbed rat rises sharply within two minutes after the start of a carbohydrate-rich meal, showing that the rapid rise is due entirely to absorption of glucose from the intestinal tract, both after 24 hr food deprivation and in the ad libitum situation.

Behaviour Changes in Cba Mice as a Result of One Goldthioglucose Injection
TL;DR: It was found that these males, whether or not obese, only rarely fight with other males and that they have a very low tendency to mate and that hungry GTG treated mice may fight for their food, although their aggressiveness in other respects has decreased markedly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of behavioural disinhibition
TL;DR: In this article, an operational criterion by which behavioural disinhibition can be distinguished from competition is described, and a number of possible mechanisms of disinhibited behaviour are outlined, and the examples described illustrate the possibility that the phenomenon of behavioural dis-inhibition occurs in many more circumstances than has hitherto been supposed.
