An assessment of the reinforcing properties of foods after amygdaloid lesions in rhesus monkeys.
The reinforcing strengths of foods were assessed in rhesus monkeys before and after bilateral radio-frequency lesions of the lateral amygdala (n = 4), basolateral amygdala (n = 4), and total amygdala (n = 3). None of these lesions altered preoperative preferences between three highly palatable foods...
