The Effects of Alcohol on Physiological Processes and Biological Development PMC
Rats readily self-administer shocks to brain regions that are important in mediating the rewarding properties of alcohol. The strength of the electrical stimulation needed for the animal to maintain responding reflects the reward value of the ICSS. Thus, if only mild electrical stimulation of a certain brain region is required to maintain responding, ICSS is …
