| Abstract | Incentive learning takes place when dopaminergic neurons are activated, usually by rewards. As a result, previously neutral stimuli associated with reward acquire incentive salience and thus the ability to elicit approach or other responses in the future. Incentive learning is assumed to underlie psychostimulant-induced context-dependent sensitization that may play a prominent role in the development of addiction, in dyskinesia, and in amphetamineinduced psychosis. Assuming that these pathological states are due to the gradual process of sensitization, the effects of therapeutics might be manifested as a gradual desensitization. This assumption could explain the delay between onset of cellular effects of drugs(e.g., dopamine receptor blockade) and the improvement in symptoms(e.g., decreases in psychotic symptoms).Reduced dopamine activity results in behavioural changes that are opposite to psychostimulant-induced sensitization,i.e., rewarded behaviours decline in an extinction-like fashion despite the presence and consumption of rewards. We show here that also non reward-related behaviour,i.e., motor activity and catalepsy, follows the same rules: Motility is not switched off by dopamine receptor blockade or by 6-hydroxydopamine lesions, but shows a test-to-test extinction-like decline. Thus, psychostimulant-induced sensitization and dopa-mine-deficiency induced decline of behaviour follows similar rules but in opposite directions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
