Marble Burying Test Analysis in Terms of Biological and Non-Biological Factors

Abstract

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is a mental disorder characterized by obsessions and/or compulsions. In order to understand underlying the mechanism of obsessive compulsive disorder, scientists apply animal tests. Animal tests of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) include genetic, pharmacological and behavior tests. Marble burying test is unconditioned OCD test. Our aim is to investigate marble burying test in terms of biological and non-biological factors.
