Biobehavioral Reviews 

TL;DR: Physiological, behavioral, and biochemical evidence demonstrating the excitatory and depressant effects of ethanol in man and experimental animals is reviewed and some implications and possible mechanisms for the biphasic actions of ethanol are discussed.

TL;DR: Evidence from the use of inhibitory drugs and antagonists to these drugs suggest a three phase model of memory formation, with phases sequentially dependent, with protein synthesis accepted as underlying the formation of long-term memory.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of benzodiazepines on conditioned and unconditioned behavior are reviewed, and the role played by changes at the response level and it is suggested, from the available evidence, that they induce response perseveration by preferentially interfering with the response-produced feedbacks.

TL;DR: A central theory of reinforcement is presented, which is based on the assumption that reinforcers act directly on dynamic memory processes, and it is shown that learning of various tasks should be improved as a result of reinforcement presented during the period of short-term memory.

TL;DR: The known responses of cerebral metabolism to ACTH are reviewed in an attempt to elucidate the underlying mechanism of its behavioral activity.
