Effects of nucleus accumbens amphetamine administration on performance in a delay discounting task
2017, Behavioural Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :Interestingly, it has been suggested that DA can modulate this internal clock. For instance, systemic administration of methamphetamine or amphetamine in rodents increases internal clock speed, resulting in an overestimation of how much time has passed and thus, faster response times [41–43]. In the current study, intra-NAc amphetamine could have altered the rats’ perception of the delay durations; however, the fact that intra-NAc amphetamine had different effects on choice performance depending on the direction of the delays does not support this interpretation.
