Modafinil and memory: effects of modafinil on Morris water maze learning and Pavlovian fear conditioning.
Modafinil has been shown to promote wakefulness and some studies suggest the drug can improve cognitive function. Because of many similarities, the mechanism of action may be comparable to classical psychostimulants, although the exact mechanisms of modafinil's actions in wakefulness and cognitive enhancement are unknown. The current study aims to further examine the effects of modafinil as a c...
متن کاملEffects of caffeine on learning and memory in rats tested in the Morris water maze.
We studied some of the characteristics of the improving effect of the non-specific adenosine receptor antagonist, caffeine, using an animal model of learning and memory. Groups of 12 adult male Wistar rats receiving caffeine (0.3-30 mg/kg, ip, in 0.1 ml/100 g body weight) administered 30 min before training, immediately after training, or 30 min before the test session were tested in the spatia...

از گذشته تا کنون، تحقیقات بسیاری صورت گرفته است که همگی به گونه ای بر مثمر ثمر بودن استفاده از استراتژی های یادگیری لغت در یک زبان بیگانه اذعان داشته اند. این تحقیق به بررسی تاثیر دو روش مختلف آموزش واژگان انگلیسی (کلیدی و بافتی) بر تلفظ و دانش لغوی فراگیران ایرانی زیر متوسط زبان انگلیسی و بر ماندگاری آن در حافظه می پردازد. به این منظور، تعداد شصت نفر از زبان آموزان ایرانی هشت تا چهارده ساله با...
15 صفحه اولEffect of Ovariectomy on Reference Memory Version of Morris Water Maze in Young Adult Rats
Background: The effect of ovariectomy and accompanying sudden loss of circulating gonad hormones on spatial learning performance in the young adult rats was examined. We hypothesized that spatial learning and memory in a considerable number of women who undergo a surgical menopause and estrogen deprivation before their natural menopause be impaired. Methods: In this study, we used 26 Wistar ra...
متن کاملThe effects of FG7142 on overexpectation of Pavlovian fear conditioning.
Six experiments studied the role of GABA-sub(A) receptor activation in expression of overexpectation of Pavlovian fear conditioning. After separate pairings of CSA and CSB with shock in Stage I, rats received pairings of the compound AB with shock in Stage II, producing overexpectation of fear. The expression of overexpectation was attenuated, in a dose-dependent manner, by the benzodiazepine p...
