Leslie, Julian C.; Shaw, David; Gregg, Gillian; McCormick, Nichola; Reynolds, David S.; Dawson, Gerard R. – Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2005
Learning and memory are central topics in behavioral neuroscience, and inbred mice strains are widely investigated. However, operant conditioning techniques are not as extensively used in this field as they should be, given the effectiveness of the methodology of the experimental analysis of behavior. In the present study, male C57Bl/6 mice,…

Schlund, Michael W.; Cataldo, Michael F. – Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2005
Results of numerous human imaging studies and nonhuman neurophysiological studies on "reward" highlight a role for frontal, striatal, and thalamic regions in operant learning. By integrating operant and functional neuroimaging methodologies, the present investigation examined brain activation to two types of discriminative stimuli correlated with…
