Nucleus accumbens D2/3 receptors predict trait impulsivity and cocaine reinforcement
…, Y Shah, K Probst, I Abakumova, FI Aigbirhio… - science, 2007 - science.org
Stimulant addiction is often linked to excessive risk taking, sensation seeking, and impulsivity,
but in ways that are poorly understood. We report here that a form of impulsivity in rats …

Dopamine release in dissociable striatal subregions predicts the different effects of oral methylphenidate on reversal learning and spatial working memory
Previous data suggest that methylphenidate can have variable effects on different cognitive
tasks both within and between individuals. This is thought to be underpinned by inverted U-…
