The tail flick might work.
I was thinking of training rats in a chamber, sounding a tone and then
administering the US. I've worked with rabbits, but rats cannot be
restrained in such a fashion to deliver a puff of air to the eye. I expect
that the rats would be freely moving (which might make

We've used loud high pitched sounds with humans. No reason why it
wouldn't work with rats. Or you could try those super high frequency

I can see
where it could be involved in the acquisition process.
Can a definitive distinction be made? On one hand it
I was about to respond when I noticed the post from David. It does a great
job of explaining the mix-up. Ketamine is just a drug (a anaesthetic with
dissociative properties); however, I would like to clear up one common

I have been given the opportunity to participate in a 6 week school
enrichment program (1 hour a week) for kids in 4-6 grade. I offered to
cover a few areas in the field of psychology. I have ideas for 3 weeks -
one week we will talk about the brain and neurons and make a playdoh brain.
