High novelty seeking is correlated with risk for substance abuse. Mice were tested serially through the following five tests to assess novelty seeking: activity in a novel environment, novel environment preference, head dipping on a hole board, object preference on a hole board, and spontaneous alternation in a Y-maze.

Procedures conducted:
• monitoring system  Activity in a novel environment. Distance traveled, number of rears. 30 min test.
• two chamber assay  Novel environment preference. Activity in familiar and novel compartments. 20 min test.
• hole board test  Head dipping and other activity measures, hole board with and without objects in two of the holes. 10 min test.
• Y-maze  Spontaneous alternation.
