https://edspace.american.edu/openbehavior/project/pavca/

Project related to tracking behavior. Used to identify subgroups of individuals that differentially attribute incentive value to food cue. Includes apparatus for studying Pavlovian conditioned approach behavior. Customized rat PavCA chambers are constructed based on modular devices purchased from Med-Associates. Code used to operate equipment and collect data was written using Med-Associates’ MEDSTATE programming language. This program is then loaded into Med-PC V operating program, also created by Med-Associates.
