IV drug self-administration is a special case of an operant task. In most operant experiments, the instrumental response that completes the schedule requirement is separate and distinct from the consumptive response (e.g. eating or drinking) that follows the delivery of the reinforcing stimulus. In most IV self-administration studies drug seeking and drug taking responses are conflated. The instrumental lever press or nose poke is also a consumptive response. The conflation of these two response classes has important implications for interpretation of the data as they are differentially regulated by dose and price. The types of pharmacological pretreatments that affect appetitive responses are not necessarily the same as those that affect consumptive responses suggesting that the neurobiology of the two response classes are to some extent controlled by different mechanisms. This review discusses how schedules of reinforcement and behavioral economic analyses can be used to assess the regulation of drug seeking and drug taking separately. New methods are described that allow the examination of appetitive or consumptive responding in isolation and provide subjects with greater control over the self-administered dose. These procedures provide novel insights into the regulation of drug intake. Cocaine intake patterns that result in large, intermittent spikes in cocaine levels are shown to produce increases in appetitive responding (i.e. drug seeking). The mechanisms that control drug intake should be considered distinct from appetitive and motivational processes and should be taken into consideration in future IV self-administration studies.
