Task Category | Animal Species Tested | Brief Description | Comparable Tests in Humans |
---|---|---|---|
Probability Discounting (PD) | Rats, NHPs, Pigeons, Mice, Starlings, Bees, Pigs. | Choices between safe and risky options. | Human PD tests; tests with safe and risky options. |
Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) | Rats, Mice, Pigs, Pigeons, Macaques. | Repetitive choices between options that are on average advantageous or disadvantageous, with a risk for loss/punishment at each option. | Human IGT, picking cards that will result in gains or losses from 4 card decks. Two decks are on average advantageous, the others are on average disadvantageous. |
Balloon Analogue Risk Task (BART) | Rats. | Pressing on one of two levers increases the size of a reward, but at a risk of losing everything. Pressing the other lever results in receiving the build-up reward. | Human BART; pressing a button to inflate a virtual balloon at the risk of popping it, or another button to cash out a reward proportional to the balloon size. |
