PTSD is a debilitating neuropsychiatric anxiety disorder that develops in a subset of individuals following a severe, life-threatening traumatic stress. It is characterized by intrusive recollections of the traumatic event, avoidance of reminders of the event, hyperarousal and hypervigilance.
15 Aug 2018 Methods: Anxiety traits were measured in elevated plus maze (EPM) test The index of open arm avoidance (100-[percentage time spent in Since standard anxiety-related measurement in the EPM test does not entail the use of Similar to the efficiency index, positive correlations between time in the 21 Dec 2017 a Subjective anxiety ratings (n = 100; on a 0 no anxiety to 9 very strong anxiety scale) on different positions of the elevated plus-maze (EPM) in Dear Ahikiro, these behavioural tests measure different types of anxiety. EPM measures acrophobia-induced anxiety (fear of height), light/dark test evaluates 11 Apr 2018 A higher anxiety index reflects higher “anxiety.” The. EPM was cleaned with a 5 % ethanol solution after each animal was tested. Behavioral data. 9 Dec 2019 With regard to the situational adversity measure, several 'anxiety' Scatter plots show the quantification of EPM metrics (a–c) and LD metrics
The elevated plus maze (EPM) is a test measuring anxiety in laboratory animals that usually uses rodents as a screening test for putative anxiolytic or anxiogenic compounds and as a general research tool in neurobiological anxiety research such as PTSD and TBI.

Page 2 The elevated plus maze (EPM) is a test measuring anxiety in laboratory animals that usually uses rodents as a screening test for putative anxiolytic or anxiogenic compounds and as a general research tool in neurobiological anxiety research such as PTSD and TBI. Tests of unconditioned anxiety (TUA) consist mainly of the elevated plus‐maze (EPM) or zero‐maze (EZM), the light–dark box (LDB) and the open‐field (OF). These tests are all intensively used, particularly the EPM, in the study of the neurobiological basis of anxiety and in screening for novel targets and anxiolytic compounds.
