Testing of animals with different degrees of manifestation of attraction to ethanol showed that in conditions of zoosocial conflict rats--potential dipsomaniacs have less competition abilities in their struggle for the aims of biological value as compared to the rats, who are not dipsomaniacs. Their failure in a conflict situation leads to the fact, that while getting in the same or some other stress conditions for the second time, the animal fully gives up activity and makes no attempts to overcome these situations. This weak behavioural activity of such rats is based on a great tendency to the development of depressive-like state. Alcohol in certain doses (0.5 g/kg) normalizes the behaviour of rats--potential dipsomaniacs. This, probably, explains the appearance of alcoholic motivation in these animals.
对具有不同程度乙醇吸引力表现的动物进行测试表明,在社会冲突条件下,与非酒瘾大鼠相比,潜在酒瘾大鼠在为生物价值目标而进行的斗争中竞争能力较弱。它们在冲突情境中的失败导致这样一个事实,即当再次处于相同或其他一些应激条件下时,动物会完全放弃活动,不再试图克服这些情况。这类大鼠这种微弱的行为活动是基于其极易发展为类似抑郁状态的倾向。一定剂量(0.5克/千克)的酒精可使潜在酒瘾大鼠的行为恢复正常。这可能解释了这些动物中酒精动机的出现。
