  • Title: [Behavioral reactions to stimulation of the emotiogenic zones of the brain in the rats with different individual experience].
    Author: Lebedev AA, Petrov ES.
    Journal: Zh Vyssh Nerv Deiat Im I P Pavlova; 1986; 36(3):496-501. PubMed ID: 3751297.
    Abstract:
    Emotional reactions evoked by electric stimulation of the hypothalamus and amygdala were studied in white outbred rats, grown either in conditions of isolation or in community. The method of self-stimulation in shuttle box was used. The values of self-stimulation reaction were significantly lower and those of avoidance reactions were higher in animals bred in isolation. Their food-procuring behaviour disappeared faster at stimulation of the negative emotiogenic zones. The observed differences are due to plastic reorganization of the brain reinforcing systems.
