• Observer ratings: validity and value as a tool for animal welfare research (2009, methodology): “A standard scale for rating nest shape in mice has thus been developed and validated (Deacon, 2006).”
• Absence of CNTNAP2 leads to epilepsy, neuronal migration abnormalities and core autism-related deficits (2011, positive): “Cntnap2 / mice were also significantly impaired in this task (Deacon, 2006), scoring less than half of the WT criterion (Figure 6D).”
