The Actions of Neuroleptic Drugs on Appetitive Instrumental Behaviors

  • Chapter
Handbook of Psychopharmacology

Abstract

Scientific study of the behavioral effects of neuroleptic drugs involves many different disciplines. Psychiatric treatment of psychoses has been revolutionized by the use of these agents to combat schizophrenia. The common pharmacological ground that most neuroleptic drugs share is an opposition to the action of dopamine (DA), usually by blockade of DA receptors. In this regard, pharmacologists have utilized the reliable behavioral sequelae of neuroleptic action to serve as “behavioral assays” for evaluating the potency of known neuroleptic drugs and identifying new ones. To the physiological psychologist, neuroleptics are a tool—a means of investigating the behavioral processes in which DA is involved. Although any substantial review of this area must employ views obtained from the different disciplines involved, it is largely from the latter perspective that the present chapter is derived.
