Schedule-induced polydipsia as a function of fixed interval length.

چکیده

Rats were trained to bar-press for Noyes pellets on an FI schedule which was increased serially through several values from 2 sec to as high as 300 sec. Concurrently, water was freely available. As FI length was increased, the degree of polydipsia increased linearly to a maximum value.

Effects of d-amphetamine on temporal distributions of schedule-induced polydipsia.

Food-deprived rats were divided into four groups according to the equal interval and time durations of a multiple fixed-interval, fixed-time schedule (15, 30, 60, and 120 s). Fixed-time components were signaled by a tone and lever withdrawal. d-Amphetamine (0.25-4.0 mg/kg) produced similar dose-dependent reductions in the drinking and licking induced by fixed-interval and fixed-time schedules. ...

Polydipsia induced by intermittent delivery of salted liquid foods.

Food-deprived rats given constant access to water were exposed to fixed-time presentations of soybean milk and diluted sweetened condensed cows' milk. In some conditions these liquid foods were adulterated with varying amounts of sodium chloride. Under a fixed-time 30-sec schedule of food delivery, little water was consumed when the food was soybean milk alone, or soybean milk with sodium chlor...

The motivational properties of schedule-induced polydipsia.

Schedule-induced polydipsia occurred during initial magazine training to Noyes pellets (45 mg), disappeared when lever-pressing was acquired on a continuous reinforcement schedule (CRF), and reappeared when the food contingency was changed to a 1-min variable interval schedule (VI 1 min). Polydipsia also developed under a VI 1 min food schedule when water was concurrently available on various f...

Schedule-induced polydipsia in rats living in an operant environment.

The effect of variations in interreinforcement interval on the temporal and distributional relation between feeding and drinking was continuously monitored. Rats were housed continuously in an operant chamber in which water was freely available, but lever pressing was required to obtain food (45-mg pellets). Initially, pellets were delivered on a fixed-ratio 1 schedule of reinforcement, which w...

Food-delay duration and the development of schedule-induced polydipsia in rats.

Twelve rats were exposed to a schedule that delivered a food pellet every 60 s (fixed time 60 s). The development of schedule-induced polydipsia was measured in terms of the water consumed and the licks per interpellet interval. Every lick by master rats initiated an unsignalled delay of 2 or 50 s in food delivery. Yoked-control rats received food at the same time as their masters, being unaffe...
