Pre-trial cocaine and performance in rat
Abstract:
Cocaine injected pre-trial (10 mg/kg i.p.) improves performance in naive and high-performance (HP) and low-performance (LP) trained rats. When the effect of cocaine is removed, the number of conditioned responses decreases and equals that of drugless sessions. Cocaine favors only performance, not retention.
