Part of a two-volume set that makes up a comprehensive guide to the techniques used to study behaviour. Volume two focuses on basic methods for studying locomotor activity, behavioural testing of drugs, statistics and signal detection.
Behavioural neuroscience is a key discipline within the field of neuroscience. Literally hundreds of techniques have been devised for measuring behavioural parameters, which presents researchers with a wide range of options. The two volumes of "Behavioural Neuroscience: A Practical Approach" provide guidance for choosing the appropriate methods for each situation and describe how to apply these methods successfully in the laboratory. Each chapter includes detailed protocols which are supported by expert advice based on experience of both theoretical and practical considerations. Volume I includes chapters on the more cognitive aspects of behaviour including learning, attention and memory, as well as computerized methods of control. Volume II focuses on methods for studying locomotor activity, motivation and affect, drug discrimination and signal detection. Together the two volumes provide a comprehensive guide to these techniques. They should be of interest to a variety of academic and industrial researchers in neuroscience, experimental psychology and pharmacology.
