Nonmotor Functions of the Cerebellum

Journal ArticleDOI

The cerebellum and learning processes in animals.

TL;DR: Although much remains to be resolved, the cerebellum seems to contribute to various emotions such as fear, the neural basis of which being cerebellar contributions to the reticular activating system, the limbic system and two-way hypothalamo-cerebellar connections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cerebellar contributions to instrumental learning

TL;DR: Evidence that cerebellar modulation extends to shock avoidance and discrimination learning is in line with the hypothesis that the cerebellum affects cognitive processes and is not strictly concerned with motor control and the acquisition and retention of conditioned reflexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is the cerebellum involved in the visuo-locomotor associative learning?

TL;DR: The present findings indicate that the presence of a cerebellar lesion delays but does not prevent visuo-locomotor associative learning and that stimulus generalisation is performed without difficulty even in the presence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance of a motor task after cerebellar cortical lesions in rats.

TL;DR: Rats with lesions of the cerebellar cortex of the hemispheres, the lobus medius of the vermis and the caudal vermis were tested on a difficult motor task and no evidence of recovery was seen in the latter two groups.

Functional localization in the cerebellum. II. Somatotopic organization in cortex and nuclei.

TL;DR: A new concept of the organization of the cerebellum into longitudinal, corticonuclear zones has been formulated on the basis of anatomical studies of Jansen and Brodal* and on their own physiological observations, which stresses the importance of localization in the efferent corticon nuclear projections.
