Abstract

The role of the instrumental response in initiating 2 sec trains of electrical stimulation to the lateral hypothalamus (ESLH) on stimulus-bound drinking was evaluated. Rats self-administering ESLH drank more water than when the same stimulations were externally imposed. It is hypothesized that the instrumental response activates a neural substrate which facilitates the ESLH in evoking drinking behavior.
