Improvement of shuttle avoidance by handling during the intertrial interval.
Rats handled between trials during shuttle avoidance training were superior to those not handled on several measures of avoidance learning; handled rats were nonetheless inferior to those receiving one-way training. A second experiment clearly demonstrated that differences between shuttle and one-way avoidance could not be attributed to differences in handling. Furthermore, hypotheses which exp...
متن کاملFacilitation and recovery of shuttle box avoidance behavior after frontal cortex lesions is induced by a contingent electrical stimulation in the ventral tegmental nucleus.
A bilateral ablation of the frontal cortex was performed in rats before and after training in an active avoidance task in a shuttle box. Animals with this lesion showed an impairment in learning and in the reversal of the avoidance task. If the animals with the lesion were implanted with an electrode in the ventral tegmental nucleus and received an electrical stimulation in this area contingent...
متن کاملInhibitory Avoidance with a Two-way Shuttle-box
so called passive avoidance), the animal precludes the aversive stimulus by not showing a behavior regularly shown in a particular environment. Inhibitory avoidance is acquired in only one trial, where the subject is punished for doing something such as entering a new compartment (test). Then, in a second session (retest), behavioral inhibition, for example not entering the compartment, is meas...
متن کاملEnhancement of active shuttle avoidance response by the NO-cGMP-PKG activator YC-1.
Although much has been learned about the role of the amygdala in Pavlovian fear conditioning, relatively little is known about the signaling pathway involved in the acquisition of an active avoidance reaction. The aim of this study is to investigate the potentiating effects of the NO-guanylate cyclase activator YC-1 on learning and memory of shuttle avoidance test in rats. YC-1 enhanced the ind...
متن کاملEmotion facilitation and passive avoidance learning in psychopathic female offenders.
Research on psychopathy among incarcerated, Caucasian males has consistently demonstrated deficits in emotion processing and response inhibition. Using the PCL-R to classify participants as psychopathic or non-psychopathic, this study examined the performance of incarcerated, Caucasian females on two laboratory tasks: A lexical decision task used to assess emotion processing and a passive avoid...
