Conditioned place preference behavior in zebrafish [PDF]

open access: yesNature Protocols, 2011
This protocol describes conditioned place preference (CPP) in zebrafish following a single exposure to a substance. In the CPP paradigm, animals show a preference for an environment that has previously been associated with a substance (drug), thus indicating the positive-reinforcing qualities of that substance.
