Problems solved by technology

In macaque training, it takes a lot of time for trainers to use traditional training methods to teach macaques to touch the prescribed graphics on the screen to obtain rewards. Habits will directly affect the training and subsequent tests of macaques. In the past, experimenters had to spend a lot of time correcting bad habits of macaques during the training phase, and in the later cognitive tests, unavoidable mistouches would also affect the experimental results. measurement brings error

Embodiment 1

[0059] Such as Figure 1~4 As shown, the rhesus monkey corrects the touch-screen cognitive training device, comprising: a training cage 1 and a touch-screen display 2 positioned at the rear facade of the training cage 1, the front of the touch-screen display 2 is provided with an auxiliary module 4; The auxiliary module 4 includes: a square frame 5 , a test card board 6 , a bracket 7 and a track 8 .

[0060] The track 8 includes a bottom track 801 and a top track 802 parallel to each other and positioned on the same vertical plane; the bottom track 801 and the top track 802 are respectively located at the bottom and the top of the training cage 1; the support 7 includes a first The bracket 701 and the second bracket 702; the first bracket 701 and the second bracket 702 are respectively located on both sides of the square frame 5, and are fixedly connected with the square frame 5; the first bracket 701 and the second bracket 702 The bottoms move in the bottom rails 801 respect...

Embodiment 2

[0074] The training method of macaque correction touch screen comprises the following steps:

[0075] b. The target graphic is displayed on the full screen, and the macaque touches the target graphic on the screen, and the macaque is rewarded.

[0076] b. install the auxiliary module in front of the screen, the auxiliary module is provided with an opening, the screen displays the target figure in the opening, when the macaque touches the target figure in the screen with his hands or other parts through the opening, he can get award.

[0077] c. After the macaque completes the correct rate of step b and reaches 100%, successively reduce the size of the opening in the auxiliary module and the size of the target graphic on the screen; and the target graphic on the screen is displayed in the opening; when the macaque touches the Get a reward when you get to the target figure on the screen; repeat the training until the opening can only pass through the macaque's fingers.

Embodiment 3

[0082] The training method of macaque touch screen correctly comprises the following steps:

[0083] a. The target graphic is displayed on the full screen, and the macaque touches the target graphic on the screen, and the macaque gets a reward.

[0084] b. Install a non-transparent auxiliary module in front of the screen, said non-transparent auxiliary module has an opening; insert such as Figure 10 In the shown test card board, the size of the opening is 12cm×12cm, and the screen displays the target figure in the opening, and when the macaque touches the target figure in the screen with his hands or other parts through the opening, he can get a reward.

[0085] c. After the macaque completes the correct rate of step b to reach 100%, successively reduce the size of the opening in the non-transparent auxiliary module and the size of the target graphic in the screen; the target graphic in the screen is displayed in the opening; when the macaque passes through the Reward is obt...

Abstract

The invention discloses a training method for macaque to correctly contact a screen and a screen contact training device. An auxiliary module is used for standardizing macaque behavior motions, helping the macaque to correct bad habits, and improving the test efficiency and accuracy. At the same time, the training process of the macaque is simplified, and the time spent by the macaque in task learning is greatly shortened. The training method and the training device help the macaque to perform touch screen tests efficiently and to complete more difficult behavioral paradigms so as to improve and perfect existing macaque behavior testing works, and provide some help for neurobiology research in the future.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of experimental animal behavior testing and animal experiment equipment; in particular, it relates to a training method and a training device for correcting a touch screen of a macaque. Background technique [0002] In the field of neurobiology, it is often necessary to conduct behavioral tests on experimental animals. By allowing experimental animals to complete certain behavioral paradigms, their cognitive abilities and brain functions are evaluated to reveal the mysteries of brain activity. As a high-level experimental animal, the macaque has a high-level and complex nervous system and can complete a variety of complex behavioral tasks. It is a very important task in the field of neurobiology to evaluate its advanced brain function and cognitive function through these behavioral tasks. important research tool. Based on neuropsychology, predecessors have developed a set of behavioral paradigms for evaluating the ad...
