Fear-potentiated startle in two strains of inbred mice.

Behavioral neuroscience - 1 Aug 1997

Falls W A, Carlson S, Turner J G, Willott J F

Abstract excerpt

The fear-potentiated startle paradigm has been used with great success to examine conditioned fear in both rats and humans. The purpose of this study was to examine fear-potentiated startle in inbred mice. One-month-old C57BL/6J (C57) and DBA/2J (DBA) mice were given tone + foot shock training trials. The amplitude of the acoustic startle reflex was measured in the presence and absence of the tone both before and...
