Abstract
A simple apparatus for measuring curiosity and motor activity is described. The practicability of the device for testing psychoactive drugs is demonstrated by several experiments in mice. The results show that curiosity (looking through holes in the side walls of the experimental cage) is often more influenced by drugs than rearing and motor activity.Entities:
