      Salamone, John; Correa, Merce Elsevier (2013-05-01)
      Over the last few years, the concept of food addiction has become a common feature in the scientific literature, as well as the popular press. Nevertheless, the use of the term addiction to describe pathological aspects ...
    • closedAccess   Effects of the dopamine depleting agent tetrabenazine on detailed temporal parameters of effort-related choice responding 

      Ren, Naxin; Carratalá-Ros, Carla; Ecevitoglu, Alev; Rotolo, Renee; Edelstein, Gayle A; Presby, Rose; Stevenson, Ian; Chrobak, James; Salamone, John Society for the Experimental Analysis of Behavior (2022-03-28)
      The dopamine-depleting agent tetrabenazine alters effort-based choice, suppressing food-reinforced behaviors with high response requirements, while increasing selection of low-cost options. In the present experiments, rats ...
    • closedAccess   Refining the dual olfactory hypothesis: Pheromone reward and odour experience 

      Martinez-Garcia, Fernando; Martínez-Ricós, Joana; Agustín-Pavón, Carmen; Martínez-Hernández, José; Novejarque, Amparo; Lanuza, Enrique Elsevier (2009-06)
      In rodents, sexual advertisement and gender recognition are mostly (if not exclusively) mediated by chemosignals. Specifically, there is ample evidence indicating that female mice are ‘innately’ attracted by male sexual ...
    • closedAccess   The behavioral pharmacology of effort-related choice behavior: dopamine, adenosine and beyond 

      Salamone, John; Correa, Merce; Nunes, Eric J.; Randall, Patrick A.; Pardo Andrés, Marta Wiley (2012-01)
      For many years, it has been suggested that drugs that interfere with dopamine (DA) transmission alter the “rewarding” impact of primary reinforcers such as food. Research and theory related to the functions of mesolimbic ...
    • closedAccess   The role of Mesolimbic dopamine in the maintenance of ethanol reinforcement
