Prior cocaine self-administration does not impair the ability to delay gratification in rats during diminishing returns.
Previous exposure to drugs of abuse produces impairments in studies of reversal learning, delay discounting and response inhibition tasks. While these studies contribute to the understanding of normal decision-making and how it is impaired by drugs of abuse, they do not fully capture how decision-making impacts the ability to delay gratification for greater long-term benefit. To address this issue, we used a diminishing returns task to study decision-making in rats that had previously self-administered cocaine. This task was designed to test the ability of the rat to choose to delay gratification in the short-term to obtain more reward over the course of the entire behavioral session. Rats were presented with two choices. One choice had a fixed amount of time delay needed to obtain reward [i.e. fixed delay (FD)], while the other choice had a progressive delay (PD) that started at 0 s and progressively increased by 1 s each time the PD option was selected. During the 'reset' variation of the task, rats could choose the FD option to reset the time delay associated with the PD option. Consistent with previous results, we found that prior cocaine exposure reduced rats' overall preference for the PD option in post-task reversal testing during 'no-reset' sessions, suggesting that cocaine exposure made rats more sensitive to the increasing delay of the PD option. Surprisingly, however, we found that rats that had self-administered cocaine 1-month prior, adapted behavior during 'reset' sessions by delaying gratification to obtain more reward in the long run similar to control rats.
期刊介绍:
Behavioural Pharmacology accepts original full and short research reports in diverse areas ranging from ethopharmacology to the pharmacology of schedule-controlled operant behaviour, provided that their primary focus is behavioural. Suitable topics include drug, chemical and hormonal effects on behaviour, the neurochemical mechanisms under-lying behaviour, and behavioural methods for the study of drug action. Both animal and human studies are welcome; however, studies reporting neurochemical data should have a predominantly behavioural focus, and human studies should not consist exclusively of clinical trials or case reports. Preference is given to studies that demonstrate and develop the potential of behavioural methods, and to papers reporting findings of direct relevance to clinical problems. Papers making a significant theoretical contribution are particularly welcome and, where possible and merited, space is made available for authors to explore fully the theoretical implications of their findings. Reviews of an area of the literature or at an appropriate stage in the development of an author’s own work are welcome. Commentaries in areas of current interest are also considered for publication, as are Reviews and Commentaries in areas outside behavioural pharmacology, but of importance and interest to behavioural pharmacologists. Behavioural Pharmacology publishes frequent Special Issues on current hot topics. The editors welcome correspondence about whether a paper in preparation might be suitable for inclusion in a Special Issue.
