Marijuana is grown in the United States, Mexico, Canada, South America, Asia, and other parts of the world. It can be cultivated outdoors and in indoor settings. Marijuana is usually smoked and ...
Under multiple schedules of reinforcement, previous research has generally observed tolerance to the rate-decreasing effects of cocaine that has been dependent on schedule-parameter size in the ...
Tolerance to effects of cocaine can be modulated by schedules of reinforcement. With multiple ratio schedules, research has shown an inverse relationship between ratio requirement and amount ...
The generalized matching law provides precise descriptions of choice, but has not been used to characterize choice between different doses of drugs or different classes of drugs. The current ...
Six rhesus monkeys responding under a three-component multiple schedule were administered haloperidol to determine its effects on cocaine self-administration and on cocaine’s disruptive ...
Effects of repeated administration of cocaine to animals behaving under operant contingencies have depended on when the drug is given. Moderate doses given presession have generally led to a
Environmental stimuli that set the occasion wherein drugs are acquired can ‘‘trigger’’ drug-related behavior. Investigating the stimulus control of drug ...
The present experiment assessed the effects of cocaine on the lever pressing of 4 rats maintained during 15-min sessions by a fixed-ratio 50 schedule of food reinforcement. Across phases, ...
Rate-dependent drug effects have been observed for operant responding maintained by food, water, heat, light onset, electrical brain stimulation, shock-stimulus termination, and shock ...
Four pigeons responded under a fixed-interval 8-min schedule of food delivery in which the amount of food delivered at the end of each interval depended on performance during the interval (i.e ...
