Résumé

En este estudio con ratas se examinaron las propiedades motivacionales del alcohol con los procedimientos conductuales de aversión condicionada al sabor y de preferencia de lugar. El Experimento 1 se realizó con el procedimiento de aversión al sabor. Las ratas recibieron durante el condicionamiento, en días alternos, emparejamientos de una solución gustativa con una inyección de etanol (1.0 g/kg) y de un sabor diferente con una inyección de salino. En una prueba posterior los animales consumieron menos la solución gustativa asociada con el alcohol durante el condicionamiento. En el Experimento 2 se empleó el procedimiento de preferencia condicionada de lugar. Las ratas eran inyectadas con alcohol o con salino antes de introducirlas durante 30 minutos en uno de los lados de una cámara de condicionamiento con dos compartimentos. En la prueba se medía el tiempo que pasaban los animales en cada una de los lados de la cámara de condicionamiento. Los sujetos inyectados con alcohol mostraron una preferencia por el lado del aparato en el que habían experimentado los efectos fisiológicos del alcohol. Los resultados indican que la dosis de alcohol administrada en este estudio puede tener tanto efectos motivacionales positivos como negativos en el organismo.
