Abstract
Rats with stimulation electrodes placed in the posterior basomedial forebrain showed improvement with training in a runway and in a maze with no reward but electrical stimulation. In a second experiment, animals with electrodes implanted slightly posterior to those of the first experiment were trained in runway and maze for electrical stimulation reward; operated hungry animals running to food served as controls. Both groups showed improvement in runway and maze, the food group being more rapid in the maze. Final performance levels were similar. Results are correlated with histological findings.
