Abstract
Rats given continuous access to rewarding stimulation of the posterior hypothalamus are able to maintain normal food and water intake despite high rates of self-stimulation. However, access to rewarding stimulation of the basolateral amygdala produced suppression of feeding and drinking followed by dramatic increases in emotionality and subsequent decreases in self-stimulation. These findings are considered with regard to the existing literature on basolateral amygdaloid lesions and stimulation.
