“…Spontaneous physical activity in animals is measured in a variety of ways, including videotaped recordings of behavior, telemetry (implanted transmitter signaling a nearby receiver that records the animals location), and placing animals in open-field chambers (after 24 -48 h habituation) equipped with sets of infrared beams around the chamber, such that movement can be detected in all axes (when the animal crosses one of these beams a "beam interruption" or "break" occurs) (6,19,53,56,67,96,102,108,109,117,149,156,159,160,162). The sensitivity, accuracy, and time demand of each method varies, and in our work we use an open-field chamber equipped with infrared beams, as we feel this provides the most sensitive, accurate, and feasible readings.…”
