Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of modafinil on non-verbal cognition, task enjoyment and creative thinking in healthy volunteers

TL;DR: It is confirmed that modafinil can enhance aspects of highly demanding cognitive performance in non-sleep deprived individuals and the effects on creative problem-solving are inconsistent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinctive personality traits and neural correlates associated with stimulant drug use versus familial risk of stimulant dependence.

TL;DR: It is suggested that some individuals with high sensation-seeking traits but no familial vulnerability for dependence are likely to use cocaine but may have relatively low risk for developing dependence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bilateral intra-accumbens self-administration of d-amphetamine: antagonism with intra-accumbens SCH-23390 and sulpiride.

TL;DR: The efficacy ofd-amphetamine to support a selective bilateral intra-accumbens self-administration response was examined, and the relationship between D1 and D2 dopamine receptors within the nucleus accumbens are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A dissociation of the effects of d-amphetamine on locomotor activity and exploration in rats.

TL;DR: A modified Berlyne Box was used to obtain independent measures of locomotor activity and exploration of novel stimuli in the same situation and drug-induced response incompatibility was found to be compatible in undrugged animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential effects of nucleus accumbens core, shell, or dorsal striatal inactivations on the persistence, reacquisition, or reinstatement of responding for a drug-paired conditioned reinforcer.

TL;DR: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of inactivating the dorsal striatum (DStr), nucleus accumbens (NAcc) core, or NAcc shell on different types of responding, each maintained by drug-paired conditioned reinforcers.
