Response-reinforcer associations after caudate-putamen lesions in the rat: spatial discrimination and overshadowing-potentiation effects in instrumental learning.

abstract：:The primate dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is implicated in diverse aspects of behavioral regulation, cognitive control, and memory. However, direct neuropsychological evidence supporting a requirement of this area in functions other than spatial working memory has been scarce. T. L. Moore, S. P. Schettler, R. J. Kill...
