Environment modifies the expression of behavioral sensitization produced by methamphetamine: behavioral and neurochemical studies.

abstract：:Evidence of observational learning (social learning) is present in many species. One such task is the one-trial taste-avoidance task, in which Actor chicks peck a bead coated with an aversant substance. Observer chicks learn to avoid beads that are similar in appearance to the one presented to the Actors. It has been ...
