title: The use of fish in studying the behavioural effects of lithium.
abstract: Lithium effects have been observed on various aspects of the behaviour of fish, and in particular upon social aggregation, aggression, visual and lateral line sensory perception, memory, and alcohol tolerance. The results of these studies are reviewed and the findings related to a model of lithium action based upon attenuation of sensory information processing.
