Checking responses of goal- and sign-trackers are differentially affected by threat in a rodent analog of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Consistent with a generalized suppression of behavior, threat-associated contextual cues produced a slight trend toward a reduced rate of active lever pressing [ Fig. 2 C; Context: F (1,33) = 3.82, P = 0.06, η 2 = 0.10; Group: F < 1; Group × Context: F < 1] though the low rate of incorrect lever pressing was unaffected [ Fig. 2 D; Context: F < 1; Group: F < 1; Group × Context: F < 1].
