Abstract: Rats with bilateral lesions of the dorsomedial area of the thalamus were shown to have a significant performance deficit on the acquisition of a one-way active shock-avoidance task relative to sham-operated controls. Administration of chlorpromazine prior to testing was shown to reduce this deficit among the DMT-lesioned animals.
