DOPAMINERGIC MODULATION OF EFFORT-RELATED CHOICE BEHAVIOR AS ASSESSED BY A PROGRESSIVE RATIO CHOW FEEDING CHOICE TASK: PHARMACOLOGICAL STUDIES AND THE ROLE OF INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES.

Mesolimbic dopamine (DA) is involved in behavioral activation and effort-related processes.Rats with impaired DA transmission reallocate their instrumental behavior away from food-reinforced tasks with high response requirements, and instead select less effortful food-seeking behaviors.In the present study, the effects of several drug treatments we

This paper is concerned with the approach to implementing the Penalty function method for imposing multi-freedom constraints in geometrically nonlinear analysis of imperfect trusses based on mixed finite element formulation.Using aquarium decor a finite element model based on displacement formulation, it is required to incorporate both the dependen

Measles is a highly contagious disease that causes temporary and severe immunosuppression in patients.Signaling lymphocyte activation molecule (SLAM) expressed on cells of the immune system functions as a receptor for measles virus (MV).In addition to SLAM, vaccine strains of MV also use a ubiquitously expressed complement regulatory protein, CD46,

This paper describes the implementation of an improved clutter suppression method for the multiple pulse repetition time (PRT) technique based on simulated radar data.The suppression method is constructed using maximum likelihood methodology in time domain and is called parametric time domain method (PTDM).The procedure relies on the assumption tha

Achieving quality education refers us to education that must be inclusive and equitable, emphasizing the value of differences in order to improve teaching and learning experiences.But, there are Bar Refrigerators still many who suffer processes of exclusion in school; those who have dyslexia make up a group damaged by poorly welcoming practices and
