新奇的影响,影响摄食和食欲的学习性能的环境背景变量,在池塘蜗牛的行为研究进行了检查。蜗牛转移到一个新的水生环境(干净的水)引起的探索行为,表现在增加的数量的自发rasping运动的嘴在第二至第五分钟后,暴露于新的环境。这种行为的强度在熟悉的环境中要弱得多(使用来自家庭水箱的水)。同样,当蜗牛在新的环境中给予蔗糖刺激时,蔗糖诱导的摄食率最高。当蜗牛在一个新的环境中接受条件反射时,使用触觉刺激与食物配对的食欲条件反射的有效性(Kemenes和Benjamin,1989 a)得到了改善。饱腹感是一个内在变量,它抑制了新环境对自发、无条件和有条件进食的刺激作用。在新的环境中训练后,条件反应保留了长达12天,从而提供了一个强大的行为范式的扩展分析的神经生理机制的因素影响软体动物的食欲学习。(C)1994年学术出版社,Inc.
The effect of novelty, an environmental background variable affecting feeding and appetitive learning performance, was examined in a behavioral study of the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis. Transfer of snails into a novel aquatic environment (clean water) evoked exploratory behavior which manifested itself in an increased number of spontaneous rasping movements of the mouth over the second to fifth minute after exposure to the novel environment. The intensity of this behavior was much weaker in a familiar environment (used water from the home tank). Similarly, sucrose-induced feeding rates were highest when the snails were given the sucrose stimulus in a novel environment. The effectiveness of appetitive conditioning using tactile stimulus paired with food (Kemenes and Benjamin, 1989a) improved when the snails were subjected to conditioning in a novel environment. Satiety, an internal variable, suppressed the stimulating effects of the novel environment on the spontaneous, unconditioned, and conditioned feeding alike. After training in the novel environment, the conditioned response was retained for up to 12 days and thus provided a robust behavioral paradigm for the extension of the analysis to the neurophysiological mechanisms of factors affecting appetitive learning in molluscs.
