PsPM-REW2: SCR, ECG, respiration, and eyetracking measurements in a Pavlovian appetitive conditioning task with juice delivery with acquisition and recall test after one week

<p>This dataset contains skin conductance responses (SCR), electrocardyogram (ECG), respiration, pupil size (PSR), and gaze coordinates measurements for 34 healthy unmedicated participants (20 females and 14 males aged 24.9 +/- 4.1) participating in a Pavlovian differential cued rewarding conditioning experiment with 2 sessions.&nbsp;<br>CSs were isoluminant colored triangles presented on the screen center with grey background.<br>US was a sip of the favourite juice selected individually. SOA between the CS onset and US was 5.5 s. Participants underwent the conditioning task with CSs (CS+ 50% reinforced) and US delivery in session 1 with 2 blocks, and were tested in a retention/extinction task one week later in session 2 with 2 blocks. No US was delivered during session 2. The ITI was jittered on each trial uniformly at random between 9 to 16 s. The blocks in each session were recorded on the same day with self-paced breaks.</p>

Dataset: Does vendor breeding colony influence sign- and goal-tracking in Pavlovian conditioned approach?

<p>Vendor differences are thought to affect Pavlovian conditioning in rats. After observing possible differences in sign-tracking and goal-tracking behaviour with rats from different breeding colonies, we performed an empirical replication of the effect. 40 male Long-Evans rats from Charles River colonies &lsquo;K72&rsquo; and &lsquo;R06&rsquo; received 11 Pavlovian conditioned approach training sessions (or &ldquo;autoshaping&rdquo;), with a lever as the conditioned stimulus (CS) and 10% sucrose as the unconditioned stimulus (US). Each 58-min session consisted of 12 CS-US trials. Paired rats (n = 15/colony) received the US following lever retraction. Unpaired control rats (n = 5/colony) received sucrose during the inter-trial interval. Next, we evaluated the conditioned reinforcing properties of the CS, by determining whether rats would learn to nose-poke into a new, active (vs. inactive) port to receive CS presentations alone (no sucrose). Preregistered confirmatory analyses showed that during autoshaping sessions, Paired rats made significantly more CS-triggered entries into the sucrose port (i.e., goal-tracking) and lever activations (sign-tracking) than Unpaired rats did, demonstrating acquisition of the CS-US association. Confirmatory analyses showed no effects of breeding colony on autoshaping. During conditioned reinforcement testing, analysis of data from Paired rats alone showed significantly more active vs. inactive nosepokes, suggesting that in these rats, the lever CS acquired incentive motivational properties. Analysing Paired rats alone also showed that K72 rats had higher Pavlovian Conditioned Approach scores than R06 rats did. &nbsp;Thus, breeding colony can affect outcome in Pavlovian conditioned approach studies, and animal breeding source should be considered as a covariate in such work.Vendor differences are thought to affect Pavlovian conditioning in rats.

PsPM-DoxMem2: Pupil, SCR, ECG, EMG and respiration measurement in a classical pavlovian discriminant delay fear conditioning task, reminder under doxycycline/placebo, retention and re-learning

<p>This dataset includes eyetracker, skin conductance response (SCR), electrocardiogram (ECG), respiration and electromyogram (EMG, only relevant for retention phase) measurements. Also included are CS and US information, keypress responses and keypress response times for 79 healthy participants (40 males and 39 females aged 24.8+/-4.9 years). Participants underwent a classical (Pavlovian) discriminant delay fear conditioning task with 1 CS- and 2 CS+ (50% reinforcement), were reminded of one CS+ one week later under either doxycycline or placebo, and were tested in a retention/extinction and re-learning task another week later. CS were isoluminant coloured triangles. US consisted of 0.5 s square electric pulses with 0.2 ms duration and 500 Hz frequency. SOA between the CS onset and US was 3.5 s. CS and US co-terminated. Before the fear conditioning task, participants completed several questionnaires. During the retention/extinction phase, an auditory startle probe (ST) and no US was delivered 3.5 s after CS onset via headphones (102 dB, 40 ms duration with 2 ms on- and offset ramp). In an immediately following re-learning phase, the ST was omitted and the CS reinforced with the same schedule as during acquisition. The ITI was randomly determined on each trial to be 7, 9, or 11 s.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

PsPM-LSOA: Pupil size response, SCR, EMG, ECG and respiration measurement from a classical (Pavlovian) discriminant delay fear conditioning task

<p>This dataset includes eye tracker (including pupillometry), skin conductance, EMG, ECG and respiratory measurements. Also included are task information, keypress responses, keypress response times and key correctness for each of 22 healthy unmedicated participants (13 females and 9 males aged 25.3 +/- 4.3 years) participating in a classical (Pavlovian) discriminant delay fear conditioning task. CS consists of two sine tones with constant frequency (135 Hz or 300 Hz). Assignment of CS frequency to CS-/CS+ is randomised across participants. US is a train of electric square pulses delivered with a constant current stimulator (Digitimer DS7A, Digitimer, Welwyn Garden City, UK) on participants&#39; dominant forearm through a pin-cathode/ring-anode configuration. SOA betwen the CS and US is 7.5 s. The ITI is randomly determined on each trial to be 10.0 +/- 1.4 s.</p>

Ecological analysis of Pavlovian fear conditioning in rats

<p>Pavlovian fear conditioning, which offers the advantage of simplicity in both the control of conditional and unconditional stimuli (CS, US) presentation and the analysis of specific conditional and unconditional responses (CR, UR) in a controlled laboratory setting, has been the standard model in basic and translational fear research. Despite 100 years of experiments, the utility of fear conditioning has not been trans-situationally validated in real-life contexts. We thus investigated whether fear conditioning readily occurs and guides the animal's future behavior in an ecologically-relevant environment. To do so, Long-Evans rats foraging for food in an open arena were presented with a tone CS paired with electric shock US to their dorsal neck/body that instinctively elicited escape UR to the safe nest. On subsequent test days, the tone-shock paired animals failed to exhibit fear CR to the CS. In contrast, animals that encountered a realistic agent of danger (a looming artificial owl) paired with a shock, simulating a plausible predatory strike, instantly fled to the nest when presented with a tone for the first time. These results highlight the possibility of a nonassociative, rather than standard associative, fear process providing survival function in life-threatening situations that animals are likely to encounter in nature.</p>
