Pheromones presumably secreted by mating conspecifics – as well as homogenates containing tissue that is homologous with the atrial gland – increase the time that Aplysia fasciata spend feeding. This effect is caused by increasing the number of feeding episodes initiated in response to food, whereas the duration of a feeding bout remains unchanged. The

Abstract:In this chapter, we review data from studies involving appetitive conditioning using measures of pavlovian approach behavior and the effects of pavlovian conditioned stimuli on instrumental behavior, including the pavlovian‐to‐instrumental transfer effect and conditioned reinforcement.

Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 1998
Models of ethanol self‐administration in animals have demonstrated that ethanol can reinforce a variety of behaviors, independent of ethanol's caloric or fluid properties. However, the processes that control self‐administration remain unclear. Determining factors related to ethanol seeking behavior, independent of consumption, Is central to the ...

Behavioral Dynamics in the Appetite for Salt in Rats
1986I am going to briefly present some laboratory findings. Hopefully, they will provide you with an idea of the behavioral facts in sodium homeostasis.

Situationally appropriate behavior: translating situations into appetitive behavior modes
Reviews in the Neurosciences, 2013If an organism's responding to its present location or more abstract situation is similar to its responding to discrete motivationally salient stimuli, then principles of stimulus-response relationships and their acquisition may apply to the organization of behavior that appears to be sensitive and appropriate to the organism's external context ...

The role of the hypothalamic melanocortin system in behavioral appetitive processes
Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 2001Much evidence suggests that the hypothalamic melanocortin (MC) system plays an important role in the control of food intake. However, investigations of the potential behavioral mechanisms have been limited to measures of aversion. The purpose of the present experiment was to assess whether other behavioral consequences of administration of MC peptides ...

Simultaneous Generalization Gradients for Appetitive and Aversive Behavior
Science, 1960In the presence of a bright light five monkeys were trained to press a lever to avoid shock and to pull a chain for food reward. When tested with a series of lights dimmer than the conditioning stimulus, the monkeys showed a sharp gradient of effect for the rewarded response, in contrast to a very flat gradient for the avoidance response.

Functional Specificity of Ventral Striatal Compartments in Appetitive Behaviors
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1999ABSTRACT:The nucleus accumbens and its associated circuitry subserve behaviors linked to natural or biological rewards, such as feeding, drinking, sex, exploration, and appetitive learning. We have investigated the functional role of neurotransmitter and intracellular transduction mechanisms in behaviors subserved by the core and shell subsystems ...

Appetitive behavior in rats after circumsection of the hypothalamus
Physiology & Behavior, 1968Abstract Hypothalamic islands were made in rats by means of a knife which was inserted down into the brain and then rotated so as to sever the neural connections of the hypothalamus with the rest of the brain while leaving intact its connections with the pituitary gland.
