Assess the impact the force-plate actometer, invented by Stephen C. Fowler, has had on behavioral neuroscience so far and what may be possible for future progress.
The web service Scopus was queried on April 28, 2021 for articles that cited the Journal of Neuroscience Methods paper titled "A force-plate actometer for quantitating rodent behaviors: illustrative data on locomotion, rotation, spatial patterning, stereotypies, and tremor" resulting in 134 articles. Articles were coded by the author for type (e.g., research, review, book chapter), phenomenon (e.g., stress, addiction), intervention (e.g., pharmacological), and measure (e.g., distance traveled, tremor).
Of the 134 citations, 116 were research articles, 10 were review articles, 7 were book chapters and one was an advertisement. The force-plate actometer has been used to study a variety of phenomena and its measurement capabilities were expanded. While primarily used for rats and mice, other species have been used.
评估 Stephen C. Fowler 发明的测力板活动计对行为神经科学的影响，以及未来可能取得的进展。
作者于 2021 年 4 月 28 日通过网络服务 Scopus 对引用了题为“用于量化啮齿动物行为的测力板活动计：关于运动、旋转、空间模式、刻板行为和震颤的说明性数据”的《神经科学方法杂志》论文的文章进行了查询，共得到 134 篇文章。作者对文章进行了编码，分类依据为类型（如研究、综述、书籍章节）、现象（如应激、成瘾）、干预措施（如药理学）和测量（如行进距离、震颤）。
在这 134 篇引用文献中，116 篇为研究文章，10 篇为综述文章，7 篇为书籍章节，1 篇为广告。测力板活动计已被用于研究各种现象，并扩展了其测量能力。虽然主要用于大鼠和小鼠，但也有其他物种被使用。
