Behavioral consequences

Energy-use behavior cannot be looked at just in the here and now or in isolation. Americans developed a greater reliance on heat, light, and power than any other nation, primarily due to decisions made by industry, government, and individuals of earlier generations that largely established the patterns for behavior today. Collective choices made long ago have behavioral consequences today, just as collective choices made today will have behavioral consequences for many more years to come. 

QUESTION Have you looked at the behavioral consequence of the low dose of apolmorphine in these particular animals ... 

So I think you can debate that issue about 99 or 95 percent depletion. I think that if you probe those animals with the proper pharmacological agents and proper environmental situation, you will pick up deficits. I think the lack of knowledge about what the serotonin systems do is the basis of the problem here. We don t know what the behavioral consequences of the serotonin depletion are.

The present review will focus on the behavioral consequences of two peptidergic compounds, oxytocin and vasopressin. A variety of other peptides, such as corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH), gonadotropin-hormone releasing hormone (GNRH), and the endogenous opiates, such as beta-endorphin (to name only a few) also influence behavior. 

Human newborns of mothers who smoke cannabis during pregnancy experience mild withdrawal symptoms and some autonomic disruption upon childbirth (Fried 1995a, 1995b). Although behavioral consequences are not apparent until 3 years of age, decrements in languange comprehension, sustained attention, memory, and behavior are related to in utero cannabis exposure. 

The medical treatment of delirium includes finding and removing the cause of the delirium and controlling the behavioral consequences of delirium. When searching for the cause of delirium, your patient s physician will perform a thorough physical exam, will review the recent medical history, will review the current medications, and will order a battery of laboratory tests. Because medications can cause or contribute to delirium, any medications that are not absolutely necessary and can safely be discontinued (at least temporarily) should be stopped.

In summary, the aforementioned data suggest that the behavioral consequences of CCK-4 in patients with panic disorder are largely independent of personality variables. The only notable exception is that the MMPl Social Introversion Scale, a measure of neurotic introversion, was a significant predictor of behavioral response to CCK-4. The variables that potentially account for the apparent enhanced sensitivity of socially introverted patients to the... 

Neurons in different regions of the gray matter can connect with each other, forming spinal reflex arcs between sensory nerves bringing together noxious stimuli and motor nerves controlling avoidance responses. The behavioral consequences of such spinal reflexes are familiar in everyday life the eye blinks as an object approaches, the hand is withdrawn from a hot plate, both without conscious control.
