Food and water restriction lead to differential learning behaviors in a head-fixed two-choice visual discrimination task for mice.
Head-fixed behavioral tasks can provide important insights into cognitive processes in rodents. Despite the widespread use of this experimental approach, there is only limited knowledge of how differences in task parameters, such as motivational incentives, affect overall task performance. Here, we...
