  • Title: Lithium effects on adjunctive alcohol consumption. III: FT-shock as the inducing schedule.
    Author: Hines G.
    Journal: Pharmacol Biochem Behav; 1989 Nov; 34(3):591-3. PubMed ID: 2623015.
    Abstract:
    Under conditions in which a mild shock (0.5 mA, 200 msec) was delivered, independently of the subject's behavior, every 90 sec (an FT 90-sec shock schedule), subjects receiving chronic lithium chloride in their drinking water (25 mEq/l), showed a rapid acquisition of an adjunctive alcohol consumption, while subjects in the control groups did not. Following termination of the FT-shock condition (extinction), subjects in all groups showed an increase in alcohol consumption, relative to both baseline and adjunctive levels.
