The present studies were aimed at further characterizing the role of DA in motivation. Rats, conditioned to expect food in one environment and no food in another, all received food on the test night. Those in the environment in which food was unexpected ate four times as much as those eating where food was expected. The overeating was eliminated by administration of the D2 antagonist raclopride. Another expectancy, timing of light offset in rats entrained to a fixed light--dark cycle, was violated by unexpectedly turning the lights off 1 h early. This provoked an elevation in food intake, which was also eliminated by the administration of raclopride. Feeding in two other situations not involving violation of expectancies (food deprivation; normal light offset) was unaffected by DA antagonism. These findings support the idea that DA signals errors in expectancy and that DA signaling is necessary for certain behavioral responses to unexpected events. |
