Respiratory component of the orienting reflex: a novel sensitive index of sensory-induced arousal in rats.

Respiratory component of the orienting reflex: a novel sensitive index of sensory-induced arousal in rats.

In humans, the integrated response to a novel stimulus (orienting reflex) includes behavioral (head turning etc) and well-characterized physiological components (changes in heart rate, respiration, skin conductance, and EEG patterns). In rodents, the physiological components of the orienting reflex...
