Aprašymas

This volume discusses detailed protocols for classic tests such as elevated mazes, the novelty suppressed feeding test, and fear-potentiated startle. To evaluate reward sensitivity, tests relying on both natural reward seeking and operant behavior are presented, as well as more recent assays of affective bias and reward learning. The chapters in this book also cover topics such as evolution-shaped avoidance of looming stimuli using a new ethoexperimental fear and anxiety test; translational value of anxiogenic chemical compounds; and prenatal stress, disrupted caregiver-infant interactions, predator-based stress, and witness social stress. Some chapters also explore infrared thermography, electrophysiological recording, and calcium imaging for the measurement of emotion. In the Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory.

Comprehensive and cutting-edge, Psychiatric Vulnerability, and Mood and Anxiety Disorders: Tests and Models in Mice and Rats, Volume 2 is a valuable resource for researchers and students who wish to expand their understanding of psychiatric research.
