Gene D. Block, chancellor of the University of California, Los Angeles, was not involved with the paper but knows Dr. Meijer and had seen the wheel set up in her garden. He said the study made it clear that wheel-running is "some type of rewarding behavior" and "probably not driven by stress or anxiety."

加州大学洛杉矶分校校长吉恩·D·布洛克(Gene D. Block)与这篇论文无关，但是他认识梅杰，而且还见过她在花园里放置的跑轮。他说，研究表明在跑轮上跑步是“一种有益的行为”，“可能不是出于压力或焦虑”。

Mice accounted for 88 percent of the wheel-running events, and spent one minute to 18 on the wheel. The other animals each accounted for less than 1 percent. Frogs, though there were very few, were seen to get on the wheel, get off and get back on.

在所有在跑轮上跑步的动物中，小鼠占了88%，在跑轮上花费的时间为1到18分钟。其他每种动物所占的比例不到1%。虽然数量不多，但是我们也看到青蛙爬上跑轮，爬下来，然后又爬回去。

Russell Foster, a circadian rhythm researcher at Oxford University, said he read the paper and sent it out to other scientists on behalf of the Proceedings and was delighted when peer reviews from other scientists were positive.

罗素·福斯特(Russell Foster)是牛津大学(Oxford University)的一名生理节律研究员。他说他读过这篇论文，并代表《英国皇家学报B》把它发给了其他科学家。其他科学家都对此持肯定态度，这让他感到高兴。
