Spatial attentional shifts: Further evidence for the role of polysensory mechanisms using visual and tactile stimuli
(Elsevier, 1989)
Normal subjects performed simple reaction time responses to lateralized visual target stimuli (Experiment 1) and lateralized tactile target stimuli (Experiment 2). In each experiment, the lateralized targets were preceded ...
Affect and cognition in the context of home: The quest for intangibles
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Human Sciences Press; Human Sciences Press ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1984-06)
The three papers in this special issue represent an important advance in the effort to understand people's attachment to place. Economic factors do not provide an adequate explanation; it is necessary to seek less tangible ...
Behavioral effects of thebaine in the rhesus monkey
(Elsevier, 1981-06)
Three experiments were conducted with rhesus monkeys to assess some behavioral effects of the opium alkaloid, thebaine, in relation to its dependence liability. The concurrent intramuscular administration of naloxone did ...
Inner ear implants for experimental electrical stimulation of auditory nerve arrays
(Elsevier, 1989-06)
Electrode arrays chronically implanted in the inner ear are gaining increased use for experimental studies of the auditory nervous system, as well as for studies related to development of improved auditory prostheses. ...
An inability of [gamma]-acetylenic GABA to block eating evoked by hypothalamic stimulation
(Elsevier, 1980-08)
Several lines of evidence have implicated the nigrostriatal dopamine system and the neocortex for eating occurring either spontaneously or in response to electrical stimulation of the lateral hypothalamus (ESLH). GABA-ergic ...
Long-term facilitation of amphetamine-induced rotational behavior and striatal dopamine release produced by a single exposure to amphetamine: Sex differences
(Elsevier, 1982-12-16)
Amphetamine (AMPH)-induced rotational behavior in non-lesioned rats and AMPH-stimulated dopamine (DA) release from striatal tissue fragments in vitro were used to study the long-term effects of a single injection of AMPH ...
Effects of excitotoxic striatal lesions on single unit activity in globus pallidus and entopeduncular nucleus of the cat
(Elsevier, 1989-11-06)
Striatal projections to the globus pallidus and entopeduncular nucleus are thought to be GABAergic and inhibitory. Thus, striatal lesions might be expected to increase the spontaneous discharge rate of neurons in these ...
Long-lasting effects of escalating doses of d-amphetamine on brain monoamines, amphetamine-induced stereotyped behavior and spontaneous nocturnal locomotion
(Elsevier, 1987-04)
The repeated intermittent administration of relatively low doses of amphetamine (AMPH) produces an enduring hypersensitivity to the motor stimulant effects of AMPH (behavioral sensitization), and this accompanied by enhanced ...
Striatal dopamine release stimulated by amphetamine or potassium: influence of ovarian hormones and the light-dark cycle
(Elsevier, 1984-10-08)
The release of endogenous dopamine (DA) from rat striatal tissue was studied in an in vitro superfusion system following hormonal manipulations in vivo. Progesterone treatment in estrogen-primed ovariectomized female rats ...
