A primer on the use of computational modelling to investigate affective states, affective disorders and animal welfare in non-human animals

Vikki Neville,
Michael Mendl,
Elizabeth S. Paul
et al.

Abstract: Objective measures of animal emotion-like and mood-like states are essential for preclinical studies of affective disorders and for assessing the welfare of laboratory and other animals. However, the development and validation of measures of these affective states poses a challenge partly because the relationships between affect and its behavioural, physiological and cognitive signatures are complex. Here, we suggest that the crisp characterisations offered by computational modelling of the underlying, but uno… Show more

“…A timely primer by Neville et al (2024) on computational translational psychiatry discusses opportunities for integrating computational approaches more closely into translational psychiatry research. In this commentary, we expand on their ideas by discussing how this approach can help to improve the translational validity of preclinical tests.…”
