Table 2.

The number and baseline firing rates of neurons recorded during instrumental responding task (experiment 2)

Treatment Session mPFC
OFC
n Baseline (Hz) n Baseline (Hz)
Vehicle Day 0 117 5.88 ± 0.33 96 6.30 ± 0.33
Amphetamine, 2 mg/kg Day 1 104 6.21 ± 0.34 89 5.69 ± 0.32
Amphetamine, 2 mg/kg Day 3 104 6.94 ± 0.33 90 6.21 ± 0.34
Amphetamine, 2 mg/kg Day 5 112 6.51 ± 0.31 79 6.08 ± 0.36
Amphetamine, 2 mg/kg Challenge 86 6.62 ± 0.37 65 5.45 ± 0.51

Although baseline firing rates during 10 min of instrumental responding were higher than spontaneous baseline rates recorded in experiment 1, there were no significant between-session difference in mPFC or OFC (one-way ANOVA, p > 0.05).
