Abstract

Animals seek water when the state of thirst arises in their brains and the tonic activity of the state governs their behavior as they select water and ingest it. The problem of the neuropsychology of drinking behavior is therefore essentially that of the brain mechanisms that are the state of thirst. That is, drinking behavior would be understood if we had intimate knowledge of the complex and specific state of brain activity that concurrently gives rise to the experience that we describe as thirst, that generates the urge to drink that underlies the search for water, and that controls the animal’s consumption of it. There are some solutions to this problem. We know something of the mechanisms for the control of ingestion itself because they are closely linked to the water losses which initiate drinking. And we have some understanding of the events that lead to the satiation of water intake. These matters will be the subject of this review. But we know nothing of the neural mechanisms of the cognitive and hedonic phenomena that are so prominent in the meaning of the concept of thirst. After all, it is the expectation of water and the pleasure of its ingestion that characterize thirst for all of us. These are mentioned here and will be discussed later because they should not be omitted from our thinking about the neuropsychology of drinking behavior despite our ignorance of their brain mechanisms.
