Elevated plus experiment maze

for animal researchfor micefor rats

The elevated plus maze is a well-characterized behavioral paradigm, and is one of the most used tests for anxiety research. The maze contains two open arms and two closed (wall-sheltered) arms and relies upon the animal’s natural tendency to stay in enclosed spaces and unconditioned fear for open spaces and heights. In short, anxious animals will spend more time in the closed arms than less anxious animals.
