Exploration is a key animal and human behavior. Kay C. Montgomery (1921-1956) has made an important contribution to behavioral neuroscience of exploration, as well as motivation and learning. His works have many important applications to current experimental models of stress, fear and memory, continuing to influence research in this field. This paper, dedicated to the 85th anniversary of Montgomery's birth, and 50 years since his tragic death, summarizes Montgomery's contribution to behavioral neuroscience, and discusses its current importance for further progress in this field. It is aimed at neuroscientists with strong interests in both theory of animal exploration and motivation, and the history of behavioral neuroscience.
探索是动物和人类的一种关键行为。凯·C·蒙哥马利(1921 - 1956)在探索行为神经科学以及动机和学习方面做出了重要贡献。他的著作在当前压力、恐惧和记忆的实验模型中有许多重要应用,持续影响着该领域的研究。本文是为纪念蒙哥马利诞辰85周年以及他不幸逝世50周年而作,总结了蒙哥马利对行为神经科学的贡献,并探讨了其对该领域进一步发展的当前重要性。它的目标读者是对动物探索和动机理论以及行为神经科学历史都有浓厚兴趣的神经科学家。
