Modulation of Learning and Memory: Effects of Drugs Influencing Neurotransmitters

  • Chapter
Drugs, Neurotransmitters, and Behavior

Part of the book series: Handbook of Psychopharmacology ((HBKPS))

Abstract

Drugs have been utilized for many years as experimental tools in the analysis of the biological mechanisms underlying behavior. An assumption implicit in this approach is that an assessment of the actions of various drugs on behavior, coupled with knowledge of mechanisms of drug action, will provide important information concerning the neurobiological bases of behavior.
