Abstract
Fourier component amplitudes and phases of the diurnal rhythm of locom otor and motor activity of laboratory mice were obtained and compared in normal and lysine-vasopressin treated animals. The neuropeptide sta bilizes the locomotor activity around a certain value in all experimen tal groups. The stabilizing action on motor activity is observed only in animals kept in a 12:12 light-dark regimen.
