Cognitive & Attention
Five-choice serial reaction time task, intra/extra-dimensional set-shifting, and touchscreen visual discrimination. ConductMaze manages stimulus arrays, response windows, and premature response penalties.
5-Choice Serial Reaction Time Task
The five-choice serial reaction time task (5-CSRTT) is a translational assay for sustained visual attention and impulse control, modeled after the human continuous performance task (CPT).
8 parametersIntra/Extradimensional Set Shifting
The intradimensional/extradimensional (ID/ED) set-shifting task is a translational assay for attentional set formation and cognitive flexibility, originally adapted from the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB) for use in rodents.
7 parametersTouchscreen Visual Discrimination
Touchscreen visual discrimination is a translational cognitive task in which rodents learn to discriminate between two visual stimuli displayed on a touch-sensitive screen, responding to the rewarded stimulus (S+) and withholding responses to the unrewarded stimulus (S−).
8 parametersDifferential Reinforcement of Low Rate (DRL)
The differential reinforcement of low rate (DRL) schedule requires subjects to withhold responding for a minimum inter-response time (IRT) before a lever press is reinforced; premature responses reset the timing clock without reward delivery.
8 parametersTouchscreen Paired Associates Learning
The touchscreen paired associates learning (PAL) task requires rodents to learn specific object-location associations and select the correct spatial location for each visual stimulus presented on a touchscreen display.
8 parametersTouchscreen Extinction and Reversal
The touchscreen extinction and reversal task assesses the ability to suppress previously reinforced responses and flexibly update stimulus-reward associations.
9 parameters5-Choice Continuous Performance Test
The five-choice continuous performance test (5-CCPT) extends the classic five-choice serial reaction time task by introducing non-target stimuli that the subject must withhold from responding to, creating a Go/No-Go discrimination embedded within a sustained attention framework.
9 parametersHoleboard Exploration
The holeboard test is a widely used paradigm for assessing spatial working memory, exploratory motivation, and selective attention in rodents.
8 parametersVisual Water Task
The visual water task, developed by Prusky, West, and Douglas (2000), is the definitive behavioral method for measuring visual acuity and pattern discrimination in freely swimming mice and rats.
8 parametersVisual X Maze
The Visual X Maze is a four-arm cross-shaped maze developed in collaboration with Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and described by Vit et al.
8 parametersZebrafish Five-Choice Serial Reaction Time Task
The zebrafish five-choice serial reaction time task (5-CSRTT) is an aquatic adaptation of the widely used rodent 5-CSRTT originally developed by Robbins and colleagues for measuring sustained attention and executive function.
