Sentence examples for pressing behavior from inspiring English sources

The button pressing behavior was programmed with the Mindstorms NXT software that serves as an intuitive drag and drop programming software to design robots.

Next, subjects reliably acquired operant lever pressing behavior during the presence of a tone (Lever/Tone association) to receive sucrose reinforcement.

CRF (500 ng) microinjections in medial shell of nucleus accumbens directly increased cue-triggered instrumental lever pressing behavior aimed at that sucrose reward, without increasing behavior in the absence of the Pavlovian CS+ or reward cue.

None of these antagonists changed lever-pressing behavior for food reinforcement.

In contrast, naltrindole did not modify lever-pressing behavior in the S−/CS− test condition [F 2,6) = 0.21; NS].

Thus, lever-pressing behavior was associated with a stronger PFC-NA correlation in neuronal firing than spatial exploration.

Following this shaping procedure, the animal had acquired the appropriate lever-pressing behavior.

Synchronization was quantified by changes in button-pressing behavior while pairs of monkeys were facing each other.

Rats were trained to press a lever for a sucrose pellet reward and when lever-pressing behaviors were stabilized, they were implanted with silastic catheters in the right jugular vein following methods described in our previous study [ 34].

In this paper, however, we specifically activated the excitatory neurons expressing CaMKII α in the VTA by optogenetic manipulations and induced similar lever-pressing behaviors of the rats.

Remarkably, in previous studies the highly frequent lever-pressing behaviors were typically induced by electrical stimulations, during which all the neural populations within the VTA were activated compulsively, making it unclear whether any type of subpopulations was involved in the reward learning behaviors.
