Administration of reserpine to rats lowers the amplitude of circadian rhythm of motor activity and shifts its acrophase to earlier hours. Efficiency of drug is higher in animals with a well expressed circadian rhythms. Some rats by the character of initial circadian mobility resemble reserpinized animals. Such initially "depressive" rats are characterized by a lesser emotionality and they reorganize with more difficulty the trajectory of avoidance response in Y-maze.
