The benefit of the socially-housed\nmonkey model is that it provides the complexity of hierarchical structure and\nrank affiliation, i.e. both negative and positive aspects of social status. At\nthe same time, nonhuman primates are more amenable to controlled experiments\nand more invasive studies that can be used in\nhuman beings to\nexamine the effects of low status on brain development, neuroendocrine\nfunction, immunity, and eating behavior. Because all of these biological and\nbehavioral substrates form the underpinnings of human illness, and are likely\nshared among primates, the nonhuman primate model can significantly advance our\nunderstanding of the best interventions in humans.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-04-22\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319809045\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-30872-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 178\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398628110476,"sku":"9783319809045","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319809045.jpg?v=1776450518","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319809045","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
