Neural systems of reinforcement for drug addiction: from actions to habits to

TL;DR: For instance, the authors hypothesize that the change from voluntary drug use to more habitual and compulsive drug use represents a transition at the neural level from prefrontal cortical to striatal control over drug seeking and drug Ta king behavior as well as a progression from ventral to more dorsal domains of the striatum, involving its dopaminergic innervation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential effects of modafinil and methylphenidate on stop-signal reaction time task performance in the rat, and interactions with the dopamine receptor antagonist cis-flupenthixol.

TL;DR: Evidence supports a hypothesis that stop and go processes are under control of distinct neurochemical mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Specific abnormalities in serotonin release in the prefrontal cortex of isolation-reared rats measured during behavioural performance of a task assessing visuospatial attention and impulsivity.

TL;DR: These findings highlight a rather specific deficit in 5-HT release in the prefrontal cortex of isolation-reared rats, although this appears not to affect visual attentional function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Frontal responses during learning predict vulnerability to the psychotogenic effects of ketamine: Linking cognition, brain activity, and psychosis

TL;DR: These findings relate aberrant prediction error-dependent associative learning to referential ideas and delusions via a perturbation of frontal cortical function and are consistent with a model of delusion formation positing disruptions in error- dependent learning.
Journal ArticleDOI

Behavioural characterisation of high impulsivity on the 5-choice serial reaction time task: Specific deficits in ‘waiting’ versus ‘stopping’

TL;DR: It is suggested that an inability to bridge delays to future rewards and reward-related stimuli is a candidate behavioural endophenotype that pre-disposes to clinical psychopathology.
