    Abstract:
    The experiments showed that alcoholic attraction in some rats and its absence in others are due to different reactions of their central nervous system to alcohol. A clear interconnection is found between the absence of alcoholic attraction, the appearance of aggressiveness during the administration of alcohol in situations of common escape and its inefficiency as to the activation of the structures of the positive reinforcement. It is also shown that in rats with alcoholic attaction this drug causes a tranquilizing effect and activates the structures of the positive reinforcement. The methods are described which help to reveal the attraction to alcohol in rats in one-time administration of its small doses.
