“…Brains process sensory information to generate various kinds of physiological responses with different timings ( i.e., with different latencies to respond): For example, motor control, foraging, decision-making and the sleep-wake cycle range on timescales from milliseconds to days ( Buhusi and Meck, 2005 ; Richelle and Lejeune, 1980 ). In decision-making, animals choose one from multiple behavioral options based on environmental sensory information, where a temporal delay is associated with the certainty of sensory information.…”

Brains regulate behavioral responses with distinct timings. Here we investigate the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the timing of decision-making during olfactory navigation in Caenorhabditis elegans. We find that, based on subtle changes in odor concentrations, the animals appear to choose the appropriate migratory direction from multiple trials as a form of behavioral decision-making. Through optophysiological, mathematical and genetic analyses of neural activity under virtual odor gradients, we further find that odor concentration information is temporally integrated for a decision by a gradual increase in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca 2+ ] i ), which occurs via L-type voltage-gated calcium channels in a pair of olfactory neurons. In contrast, for a reflex-like behavioral response, [Ca 2+ ] i rapidly increases via multiple types of calcium channels in a pair of nociceptive neurons. Thus, the timing of neuronal responses is determined by cell type-dependent involvement of calcium channels, which may serve as a cellular basis for decision-making.

“…The high point of Richelle’s technical research on animal timing was almost certainly the publication of Time in Animal Behaviour ( Richelle & Lejeune, 1980 ). However, some important issues were prefigured in earlier work.…”

“…Time in Animal Behavior ( Richelle & Lejeune, 1980 ) had several contributors (Daniel Defays, Pamela Greenwood, Francoise Macar, and Huguette Mantanus) besides the two cited authors, although they were responsible for the majority of the text. The book covers almost everything known about animal timing up to the date of its publication.…”

This article discusses the contribution of Marc Richelle to the study of temporal regulation of behaviour in animals. Richelle was a pioneer of behavioural pharmacology in Europe in the 1960s, and some of his early pharmacological experiments, particular those involving chlordiazepoxide, are discussed. Richelle frequently tested drug effects on performance on fixed-interval (FI) and differential reinforcement of low rate (DRL) schedules. Much of his later work, conducted with Helga Lejeune, involved cross-species comparisons of performance on FI and DRL, and often focused on potential differences between "timing competence" and "timing performance". His work provided an unrivalled body of research on operant behaviour in different species, involving research on animals as different as cats and fish. Much of the work was reviewed in Richelle and Lejeune's 1980 book Time in Animal Behaviour, which contained particularly influential accounts of collateral behaviour and inter-species comparisons.

“…The study of time in animals has been examined aggressively by experimental psychologists (24,25). To be sure, there are studies designed to examine time estimation (which itself can take a variety of procedural forms), whereas others purport to enable the study of elapsed time, and so forth.…”

Models and methods for studying behavior in polyunsaturated fatty acid research

This report examines a range of models and procedures applicable to polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) research and considers their relative merits. Considerations pertaining to cost, efficiency, and scientific rigor are of particular interest. Parallel activities in other areas of behavioral neuroscience, such as behavioral pharmacology and toxicology, that have profitably exploited various behavior designs for the study of human and animal cognition are noted. Special attention is given to the utility of operant conditioning models and schedules of reinforcement, which are currently underrepresented in PUFA research. Investigations of analogs of complex human behavior as well as implications for generalizing laboratory results to clinical phenomena are addressed.
