Obstacle Avoidance by Means of an Operant Conditioning Model [PDF]
, 1995 This paper describes the application of a model of operant conditioning to the problem of obstacle avoidance with a wheeled mobile robot. The main characteristic of the applied model is that the robot learns to avoid obstacles through a learning-by-doing

Acute drug effects on habitual and non-habitual responding in crossed high alcohol preferring mice [PDF]
, 2018 RATIONALE: Drug reward plays a central role in acquiring drug-seeking behavior. However, subjects may continue using drugs despite negative consequences because self-administration becomes habitual, and divorced from outcome values. Although a history

Dorsal-CA1 hippocampal neuronal ensembles encode nicotine-reward contextual associations [PDF]
, 2017 Natural and drug rewards increase the motivational valence of stimuli in the environment that, through Pavlovian learning mechanisms, become conditioned stimuli that directly motivate behavior in the absence of the original unconditioned stimulus.

Associative learning impairments in rats lacking dopamine transporter
Учёные записки Санкт-Петербургского государственного медицинского университета им. Акад. И.П. Павлова, 2022 Introduction. Changes in the expression of the dopamine transporter (DAT) have been identified in patients with a number of neuropsychiatric disorders, but their significance for pathogenesis remains unclear.

Self-modulation of rectus femoris reflex excitability in humans
Scientific Reports, 2023 Hyperreflexia is common after neurological injury such as stroke, yet clinical interventions have had mixed success. Our previous research has shown that hyperreflexia of the rectus femoris (RF) during pre-swing is closely associated with reduced swing ...

Comparisons of Animal “Smarts” Using the First Four Stages of the Model of Hierarchical Complexity [PDF]
, 2020 The Model of Hierarchical Complexity is a behavioral model of development and evolution of the complexity of behavior. It is based on task analysis. Tasks are ordered in terms of their hierarchical complexity, which is an ordinal scale that measures ...

Pain rewarded: hyperalgesic and allodynic effect of operant conditioning in healthy humans : protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
, 2018 Background: "pain rewarded" is a hypothesis wherein acute pain sufferers are exposed to reinforcers and punishers from their environment that shape their behaviour, i.e. pain responses.
