The effects of various doses of ethanol on DRL performance was examined in rats under conditions of cued and non-cued DRL tasks and under conditions of low versus high baseline performance criteria. The dose-level at which ethanol produced a significant reduction in number of responses and reinforce

Rats were rendered tolerant to the motor-impairing effects of ethanol by daily oral administration. Subsequently, ethanol was withdrawn and the effect of p-chlorophenylalanine (p-CPA) on tolerance loss was examined. In two separate studies it was demonstrated that p-CPA, in a dosage regimen that pro
The phenomenon of behavioral augmentation of tolerance (BAT) to ethanol (EtOH) in the rat was replicated in studies using the moving belt test of intoxication. Rats performing the test daily under the influence of EtOH (2.2 or 2.5 g/kg i.p.) developed tolerance more rapidly than those receiving the
Chronic oral administration of cannabis extract to rats (daily A 9-tetrahydrocannabinol dose 20 mg/kg) was examined for its residual effect on open field activity and DRL (differential reinforcement of low-rate responding) performance, following a 2-3-month drug-free period. Locomotor activity durin
Sham and electrolytic lesions of the dorsal, median, and median + dorsal raphe nuclei were made in different groups of rats, and the differential patterns of regional 5-HT depletion were verified chemically. One week later, an initial dose-response curve for the motor impairment effect (moving belt
