Overshadowing depends on cue and reinforcement sensitivity but not schizotypy (2016)
Journal Article

There is evidence for impaired selective learning mechanisms in individuals high in schizotypy. Overshadowing provides a direct test of selective learning based on cue salience and has previously been reported to be impaired in relation to schizotypy...

Developing a Collaborative Agenda for Humanities and Social Scientific Research on Laboratory Animal Science and Welfare (2016)
Journal Article

Improving laboratory animal science and welfare requires both new scientific research and insights from enquiry in the humanities and social sciences. Whilst scientific research provides evidence to replace, reduce and refine procedures involving lab...

The dopamine D1 receptor agonist SKF81297 has dose-related effects on locomotor activity but is without effect in a CER trace conditioning procedure conducted with two versus four trials (2016)
Journal Article

In an appetitively motivated procedure, we have previously reported that systemic treatment with the dopamine (DA) D1 receptor agonist SKF81297 (0.4 and 0.8 mg/kg) depressed acquisition at a 2s inter-stimulus-interval (ISI), suitable to detect trace...

Potentiation rather than distraction in a trace fear conditioning procedure (2016)
Journal Article

Trace conditioning procedures are defined by the introduction of a trace interval between conditioned stimulus (CS, e.g. noise or light) offset and unconditioned stimulus (US, e.g. footshock). The introduction of an additional stimulus as a distracto... Read More about Potentiation rather than distraction in a trace fear conditioning procedure.
