"Compared with the performance of 11 control animals, the [12] radiated monkeys showed no deficits on complex learning tasks but showed significant decreases in weight gain, appetite and locomotor activity, with these decreases being roughly proportional to the cumulative dosage absorbed. Radiated monkeys were superior in performance on two of the learning tests during the later stages of the investigation. This superiority may have been the result of decreased activity and distractibility . . . . These data support the position that radiation injury is in part reparable and in part irreparable, and that administration of divided doses permits subsidence of the reparable injury."
