Individual and typological behavioral characteristics of CBA/CaLac mice.

ABSTRACT

Individual characteristics of higher nervous activity were studied in CBA/CaLac mice. The animals were divided into groups by the parameters of drinking response conditioning in a complex spatial environment. As distinct from bad learners, good learners exhibited higher orientation and exploratory activity in the open field, rapid adaptation, and low ability to retain the responses. Changes in conditioned reflex activity during neuroses were more pronounced in good learners.
