Declining or Waning
- Behavioral Studies in Non-Mammalian Species:
Research on non-mammalian models has decreased, possibly due to a growing emphasis on more directly relevant mammalian studies that can inform human neuroscience. - Pharmacological Interventions in Behavioral Studies:
The frequency of studies focusing solely on pharmacological interventions has waned, suggesting a possible shift towards integrated approaches that combine behavioral, neurobiological, and cognitive assessments. - Basic Mechanisms of Sensory Processing:
Investigations that focus exclusively on the basic mechanisms of sensory processing without linking to higher cognitive functions are becoming less common, indicating a trend towards more integrative research.
