TSE放射迷宫（八臂迷宫）

Radial Maze (8-Arm Maze) 放射迷宫（八臂迷宫）

The TSE Radial Mazes are completely computerized systems used to investigate hippocampus-dependent learning and memory performance. In the usual task food is available at the end of each arm or in selected arms only. The animal has to learn to visit each arm without going back to an already-visited empty arm or entering an arm that has never been baited. Learning and memory impairments will influence the performance in subsequent retention tests.
TSE放射迷宫是完全电脑化的系统，用于研究依赖海马体的学习和记忆性能。 在通常的任务中食物存在于每个选择臂或选定的迷宫臂中。动物必须学会访问每个迷宫臂而不回到一个已经访问了的空臂或进入从未放诱饵的臂。 学习和记忆障碍会影响随后保留测试中的表现。

In the Radial Maze software a variety of control parameters can be defined including the start position, termination criterion, feeding pattern, or whether the animal is to be confined in the center to prevent perseverative behavior (only if automatic doors are present). The number of correct choices, i.e. first entries into baited arms, as well as performance errors are calculated. The maze can also be run with non-baited arms or using the continuous refilling option to monitor the locomotion pattern in the maze.
在放射迷宫软件中可以定义各种控制参数，包括起始位置，终止标准，给食方式，或者动物是否被限制于在中心，以防止固着行为（仅当有自动门时）。计算得到正确选择的次数，例如进入诱饵臂，以及表现错误。 迷宫也可以不使用诱饵的迷宫臂运行或者使用持续再填选项以监测迷宫中运动模式。

The TSE Radial Maze is also available as a non-automated system for use in the TSE VideoMot2 system.
