Place preference box

The Conditioned Place Preference (CPP) Apparatus is used in a wide variety of paradigms. Most commonly it is employed in the assessment of the rewarding property of drugs (or other natural reinforcers) or to identify the neuronal basis of reinforcement expression. Typically, a drug is injected, and the animal is placed in a test chamber with distinctive environmental cues. This procedure is repeated for several days.
