Aim: Sexual functioning is generally impaired during depression. This article would like to demonstrate a principle of behavior that can ultimately become a solution of sexual dysfunction by controlling the number of stimulus repetitions then this is an effective way to maintain the novelty of stimulation that can regain the excitement of behavior in terms of response time and duration. Method: An eight years old male pigtail macaque model named "John" who lives in an individual cage (5 × 5 × 5 m).
