    Behavioral toxicology investigates how neurotoxicants harm neural and cognitive functions like memory and attention. This review covers challenges and methods for assessing these behavioral effects.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Toxicology
    • Behavioral Science

    Background:

    • Behavioral toxicology focuses on adverse effects of neurotoxicants on neural and behavioral functions.
    • Numerous substances are known to impact cognitive processes, including memory, attention, and perception.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review challenges in assessing neurotoxic effects on cognition.
    • To identify various paradigms used in behavioral toxicology for evaluating cognitive impairments.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of existing research on behavioral toxicology and cognitive assessment.
    • Identification and categorization of established and emerging assessment paradigms.

    Main Results:

    • Highlights the complexities and critical issues in evaluating neurotoxic impacts on cognition.

  • Presents a range of behavioral paradigms suitable for assessing cognitive deficits.

    • Conclusions:

    • Accurate assessment of neurotoxic effects on cognition requires careful consideration of methodological challenges.
    • The identified paradigms offer valuable tools for advancing behavioral toxicology research and risk assessment.
