Pavlovian fear conditioning, which offers the advantage of simplicity in both control conditional and unconditional stimuli (CS, US) presentation analysis specific responses (CR, UR) a controlled laboratory setting, has been standard model basic translational research. Despite 100 years experiments, utility conditioning not trans-situationally validated real-life contexts. We thus investigated whether readily occurs guides animal's future behavior an ecologically-relevant environment. To do...

Basic research of fear and anxiety in rodents has historically utilized a limited set behavioral paradigms, for example, Pavlovian (classical) conditioning, the elevated plus-maze, or inhibitory (passive) avoidance. These traditional paradigms measure selection variables over short duration, providing only “snapshot” anxiety-related behavior. Overreliance on these such snapshots ultimately lead to narrow understanding complex motivational states. Here, we elaborate closed economy;...

Rodents in the wild are under nearly constant threat of aerial predation, and thus haveevolved adaptive innate defensive behaviors, such as freezing or fleeing, response to aperceived looming threat. Here we investigated sex differences using an ethologically relevant paradigm study innate-fear predators rats during a goal-oriented task. Rats foraging for food large arena encountered either 2D 3D stimulus, which they instinctively fled back safe nest. When facing direct predatory threat,...
