Opposing neural effects of naltrexone on food reward and aversion: implications for the treatment of obesity.

abstract：:Response decrements in an operant task produced by either extinction or by the dopamine receptor blocker pimozide were examined in three experiments which employed intermittent reinforcement schedules. In contrast to the congruency between these treatments previously observed following continuous reinforcement trainin...
