A clozapine-like effect of cyproheptadine on progressive ratio schedule performance (2011)
Journal Article
Olarte-Sánchez, C., Valencia Torres, L., Cassaday, H. J., Body, S., Bradshaw, C., Szabadi, E., & Goudie, A. (2012). A clozapine-like effect of cyproheptadine on progressive ratio schedule performance. Journal of Psychopharmacology, 26(6), 857-870. https://doi.org/10.1177/0269881111408961

The atypical antipsychotic drug clozapine has multiple pharmacological actions, some of which, including 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT2) and histamine (H1) receptor antagonist effects, are shared by the non-selective 5-HT receptor antagonist cyproheptadi...

The effect of catecholaminergic depletion within the prelimbic and infralimbic medial prefrontal cortex on recognition memory for recency, location, and objects (2011)
Journal Article
Nelson, A. J., Cooper, M. T., Thur, K. E., Marsden, C. A., & Cassaday, H. J. (2011). The effect of catecholaminergic depletion within the prelimbic and infralimbic medial prefrontal cortex on recognition memory for recency, location, and objects. Behavioral Neuroscience, 125(3), https://doi.org/10.1037/a0023337

There is good evidence that the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is involved in different aspects of recognition memory. However, the mPFC is a heterogeneous structure, and the contribution of the prelimbic (PL) and infralimbic (IL) cortices to recogn...

Catecholaminergic depletion in nucleus accumbens enhances trace conditioning (2011)
Journal Article
Nelson, A. J., Thur, K. E., Spicer, C., Marsden, C., & Cassaday, H. J. (2011). Catecholaminergic depletion in nucleus accumbens enhances trace conditioning. Advances in Medical Sciences, 56(1), https://doi.org/10.2478/v10039-011-0014-2

Purpose: To examine the effect of dopamine depletion in nucleus accumbens on trace conditioning; to distinguish the role of core and shell sub-regions, as far as possible. Material/Methods: 6-hydroxydopamine was used to lesion dopamine terminals with... Read More about Catecholaminergic depletion in nucleus accumbens enhances trace conditioning.

Reduced dopamine function within the medial shell of the nucleus accumbens enhances latent inhibition (2011)
Journal Article
Nelson, A. J., Thur, K. E., Horsley, R., Spicer, C., Marsden, C., & Cassaday, H. J. (2011). Reduced dopamine function within the medial shell of the nucleus accumbens enhances latent inhibition. Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 98(1), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pbb.2010.11.025

Latent inhibition (LI) manifests as poorer conditioning to a CS that has previously been presented without consequence. There is some evidence that LI can be potentiated by reduced mesoaccumbal dopamine (DA) function but the locus within the nucleus...

Impaired Pavlovian conditioned inhibition in offenders with personality disorders (2011)
Journal Article
He, Z., Cassaday, H. J., Howard, R. C., Khalifa, N., & Bonardi, C. (2011). Impaired Pavlovian conditioned inhibition in offenders with personality disorders. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 64(12), https://doi.org/10.1080/17470218.2011.616933

Certain types of violent offending are often accompanied by evidence of personality disorders (PDs), a range of heterogeneous conditions characterised by disinhibited behaviours that are generally described as impulsive. The tasks previously used to... Read More about Impaired Pavlovian conditioned inhibition in offenders with personality disorders.

Associative learning in ADHD: improved expression under methylphenidate (2011)
Journal Article
Kantini, E., Cassaday, H. J., Batty, M. J., Hollis, C., & Jackson, G. M. (2011). Associative learning in ADHD: improved expression under methylphenidate. Open Journal of Psychiatry, 1(2), https://doi.org/10.4236/ojpsych.2011.12004

Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is characterised by developmentally inappropriate levels of inattention, impulsivity and hyperactivity. As might be expected of a disorder in which inhibitory deficits form part of the diagnostic criter... Read More about Associative learning in ADHD: improved expression under methylphenidate.

The normal inhibition of associations is impaired by clonidine in Tourette syndrome (2011)
Journal Article
Kantini, E., Cassaday, H. J., Hollis, C., & Jackson, G. M. (2011). The normal inhibition of associations is impaired by clonidine in Tourette syndrome. Journal of the Canadian Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry = Journal de l'Academie canadienne de psychiatrie de l'enfant et de l'adolescent, 20(2),

Objective: We examined the inhibition of stimulus-stimulus associations (formally ‘conditioned inhibition’) in Tourette syndrome (TS). Method: The present study used video game style conditioned inhibition procedures suitable for children and adolesc...
