Abstract:
:In a 1967 Physiological Reviews paper, Frank Beach put forth four propositions regarding forebrain and hormonal control of brainstem-spinal mechanisms of copulatory behavior. Simply stated, he proposed that: 1) the forebrain exerted an inhibitory control over species-typical copulatory reflexes through descending effects on brainstem-spinal mechanisms and 2) gonadal hormones influence these reflexes largely by actions on forebrain control processes rather than by direct effects on the brainstem or spinal cord. This theoretical scheme was of great heuristic significance during the subsequent two decades of research, which has largely supported and delineated in greater mechanistic detail the processes Beach hypothesized to exist. This subsequent research has also shown the central nervous system actions of gonadal hormones to be more widespread and complex than Beach proposed. Some of these recent research findings are presented, with emphasis on neurophysiological studies which have identified hormone-induced functional changes in forebrain and brainstem neurons. It is proposed that these functional changes may represent a mechanism for the behavior-controlling actions of hormones that were hypothesized by Beach.
