| behavioural techniques | <psychiatry> A coping strategy in which patients are taught to monitor and evaluate their own behaviour and to modify their reactions to pain. (16 Dec 1997) |

| genetic techniques | Chromosomal, biochemical, intracellular, and other methods used in the study of genetics. (12 Dec 1998) |
| patch-clamp techniques | An electrophysiologic technique for studying cells, cell membranes, and occasionally isolated organelles. All patch-clamp methods rely on a very high-resistance seal between a micropipette and a membrane; the seal is usually attained by gentle suction. The four most common variants include on-cell patch, inside-out patch, outside-out patch, and whole-cell clamp. Patch-clamp methods are commonly used to voltage clamp, that is control the voltage across the membrane and measure current flow, but current-clamp methods, in which the current is controlled and the voltage is measured, are also used.

| relaxation techniques | The use of muscular relaxation techniques in treatment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| replica techniques | Methods of preparing tissue specimens for visualization using an electron microscope, usually a scanning electron microscope. The methods involve the creation of exact copies of the specimens by making a mold or cast (i.e., replica) of the specimen. (12 Dec 1998) |

| projective techniques | Techniques whereby personality attributes are revealed through the subject's responses to relatively unstructured, ambiguous, or vague stimuli. These responses represent projections of the subject's own fears and needs. (12 Dec 1998) |
| histocytological preparation techniques | Methods of preparing cells or tissues for examination and study of their origin, structure, function, or pathology. The methods include preservation, fixation, sectioning, staining, replica, or other technique to allow for viewing using a microscope. (12 Dec 1998) |
