Extinction EXT for Rats for Physiological Research Instrumentation

The Extinction Task for Rats is designed for controlled cognitive and physiological research involving behavioral inhibition and extinction learning. Manufactured by Atico Export with a focus on precision, durability and consistent performance for physiological research and experimental laboratory use.

• Designed to assess behavioral inhibition
• Provides a simple task for studying response inhibition
• Can assess behavioral inhibition through extinction learning

Task principle :

• The rat initially responds to a white square presented in the centre window to obtain a reward
• Once the required performance criterion is reached, extinction is tested
• During extinction sessions, responses to the stimulus are no longer rewarded

• Test of behavioral inhibition
• Training paradigms and experimental guidance included
• Uses a flexi-shelf in the rat chamber
