Exploration and habituation in Purkinje cell degeneration mutant mice
Purkinje cell degeneration ( pcd) mutant mice lose virtually all Purkinje cells. It was found that the pcd mutants did not show within-sessions habituation in terms of hole-poking responses. This type of perseverative responding has been found in rats with limbic system damage and implies a role for...

Zusammenfassung: | Purkinje cell degeneration (
pcd) mutant mice lose virtually all Purkinje cells. It was found that the
pcd mutants did not show within-sessions habituation in terms of hole-poking responses. This type of perseverative responding has been found in rats with limbic system damage and implies a role for the cerebellum in behavioral inhibition. |
