摘要：

Rats with electrolytic lesions of the median nucleus of the raphe were severely impaired in the acquisition of a straight alley, single alternation response compared to sham operated controls. This deficit was due to the failure of lesioned animals to reduce their running speeds on non-reinforced trials. As similar results have been obtained following damage to several limbic structures, this study provides behavioral evidence for the concept of a limbic midbrain circuit. © 1979.
