We present the case for a model-based approach to the statistical analysis of rodent locomotion data for which previous research has established that the time course of behavioral change follows a specified parametric form. Inadequacies of statistical methods commonly applied to such data are described. Regression models can reveal time-dependent aspects of response that might escape more elementary...
Behavioral sensitization is a well-studied model of behavioral plasticity mediated at least in part by dopaminergic systems believed to play an important role in several psychiatric conditions. In the rodent, locomotion is regulated by the opposing balance of D3 and D2 receptors, with D2 activation increasing and D3 stimulation inhibiting locomotion. However, receptor occupancy of D3 dopamine receptors...
