Reward Loss as Psychological Pain

TL;DR: Research reviewed in this article demonstrates that the opioid system is normally engaged in cSNC and that individual differences in sensitivity to opioid antagonists correlate with fast recovery (resilience) and slow recovery (vulnerability) from reward loss.
Journal ArticleDOI

Behavioral neuroscience of psychological pain

TL;DR: This article briefly discusses the daily-life significance of psychological pain and centers on a discussion of the results originating from two procedures involving incentive loss: successive negative contrast-the unexpected devaluation of a reward-and appetitive extinction- the unexpected omission of a Reward.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective effects of the delta-opioid receptor agonist DPDPE on consummatory successive negative contrast.

TL;DR: Two experiments explored the role of the opioid system in a situation involving a surprising reduction in reward magnitude: consummatory successive negative contrast and the attenuating effect of partial reinforcement on the recovery from contrast.
Journal ArticleDOI

Consummatory successive negative and anticipatory contrast effects in inbred Roman rats.

TL;DR: Differences between the Roman rat strains in consummatory contrast paradigms can only be observed when the sucrose solution manipulation implies an incentive loss-attenuated emotional situation, but not when it occurs in an anticipatory manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

Naloxone facilitates appetitive extinction and eliminates escape from frustration

TL;DR: Opioid blockage appears to reduce the value of alternative incentives, and when shifted to extinction (between-group design), naloxone facilitated extinction relative to saline animals, after reinforcement with either sucrose or food pellets.
