What's the difference between excessive and stereotypy?
Excessive
Definition:
(a.) Characterized by, or exhibiting, excess; overmuch.
Example Sentences:

(15) This excess in diagnosis comprises, in particular, the ductal type, primarily its most aggressive forms.
(16) Attention is drawn to the desirability of differentiating between supra- and sub-gingival calculus in the CPITN scoring system and to the excessive treatment requirements that arise from classifying everyone with calculus as requiring prophylaxis and scaling.
(17) IgG-gold also adhered to M cells and excess unlabeled IgG inhibited IgA-gold binding; thus binding was not isotype-specific.
(18) The technique did not compromise cancer resection, excessively prolong operating time, or alter postoperative management.
(19) The temperature-activated 4 to 5 S EBP transformation is found to be highly reproducible without loss of [3H]estradiol-binding activity in a buffer containing an excess of [3H]estradiol, 40 mM Tris, 1 mM dithiothreitol, and 1 M urea at pH 7.4.
(20) The amount of cleavage products depends on the excess of H2O2 used.
Stereotypy
Definition:
(n.) The art or process of making stereotype plates.
Example Sentences:
(1) Isolates showed a decrease in the intensity of apomorphine-induced stereotyped behaviours but no change in stereotypy induced by AMPH.
(2) Increased intensity of stereotypy was observed reaching a maximum 14 days after frontal lobe damage.
(3) However, when mice pretreated with reserpine 24 h earlier were used, NPA was found to be 6.5 times more active in producing locomotor stimulation and 8.7 times more active in producing stereotypy than apomorphine.
(4) The action of the hormone was of the adaptive character and was determined by the initial intensity of stereotypy.
(5) However, the same treatment did not interfere with the intensity of stereotypy.
(6) Infusion of the mixed agonist dopamine (0, 2.0, 10.0, 20.0 micrograms in 0.5 microliter vehicle) into the ventrolateral striatum was found to elicit intense oral stereotypy.
(7) Without shocks, apomorphine-treated rats displayed stereotypy with locomotion and biting of various objects.
(8) those that were novel or required a greater number of responses), and when stereotypy was allowed to effect a delay in instructional demands.
(9) This hypothesis was tested by examining amphetamine-induced activity and stereotypy in social and isolated rats of both sexes in both the active and inactive phases of their diurnal activity cycle.
(10) In comparing amphetamine-induced stereotypy with PEA-induced stereotypy, we found that the alpha-adrenergic blocking agents phentolamine and phenoxybenzamine selectively antagonize PEA stereotypy, whereas the beta-adrenergic blocking agent propranolol fails to alter significantly stereotypies evoked by PEA or amphetamine administration.
(11) Both naloxone and naltrexone attenuated amphetamine and apomorphine stereotypy, while the effect of diprenorphine was different: it slightly attenuated the amphetamine stereotypy, but slightly potentiated the stereotypy induced by apomorphine.
(12) Also, the prior administration of D145 or amantadine inhibited the development of the biting components of apomorphine and d-amphetamine stereotypy.
(13) Patients with SIB and stereotypy had significantly higher morning levels of b-endorphin than the retarded controls.
(14) After a 7-day abstinence period, a challenge test with methamphetamine alone revealed supersensitivity of methamphetamine-sensitized rats to subsequent methamphetamine, whereas rats pretreated with repeated methamphetamine in combination with BMY 14802 exhibited no difference in the intensity of stereotypy from rats pretreated with repeated saline.
