Light-stimulus intensity modulates startle reflex habituation in larval zebrafish
Scientific Reports, 2021 The startle reflex in larval zebrafish describes a C-bend of the body occurring in response to sudden, unexpected, stimuli of different sensory modalities. Alterations in the startle reflex habituation (SRH) have been reported in various human and animal

Reduced Prepulse Inhibition as a Biomarker of Schizophrenia
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2016 The startle response is composed by a set of reflex behaviors intended to prepare the organism to face a potentially relevant stimulus. This response can be modulated by several factors as, for example, repeated presentations of the stimulus (startle ...
