Spatial memory: behavioural determinants of persistence in the watermaze delayed matching-to-place task (2014)
Journal Article

The watermaze delayed matching-to-place (DMP) task was modified to include probe trials, to quantify search preference for the correct place. Using a zone-analysis of search-preference, a gradual decay of one-trial memory in rats was observed over 24...

Temporary inhibition of dorsal or ventral hippocampus by muscimol: Distinct effects on measures of innate anxiety on the elevated plus maze, but similar disruption of contextual fear conditioning (2013)
Journal Article

Studies in rats, involving hippocampal lesions and hippocampal drug infusions, have implicated the hippocampus in the modulation of anxiety-related behaviors and conditioned fear. The ventral hippocampus is considered to be more important for anxiety...
