A comparison was made between the reinforcing properties of a purposive attack provoked by stimulation of the hypothalamus and those of natural behaviour based on a certain motivation and exteroceptive stimuli. A model of an experiment with two cats has been evolved which made it possible to study simultaneously their behaviour in response to one and the same indifferent stimulus, reinforced in one cat by stimulation of the hypothalamus, while for the other, the stimulus acted as a signal of the attack on the part of the stimulated cat. It was shown that conditioned reflexes were not elaborated on the basis of reinforcement of the indifferent stimulus with behavioral effects of the purposive attack, produced by stimulation of the hypothalamus. It is assumed that conditioned reproduction of the purposive attack is impossible due to the absence of natural motivation; hence behavioral acts imposed by stimulation of the brain are not fixed in the memory.
对刺激下丘脑引发的有目的攻击的强化特性与基于特定动机和外感受性刺激的自然行为的强化特性进行了比较。设计了一个用两只猫进行实验的模型，通过该模型可以同时研究它们对同一个中性刺激的反应行为。在一只猫身上，通过刺激下丘脑对该中性刺激进行强化，而对另一只猫来说，该刺激则是受刺激猫发动攻击的信号。结果表明，基于下丘脑刺激所产生的有目的攻击的行为效应来强化中性刺激，并不能形成条件反射。据推测，由于缺乏自然动机，有目的攻击的条件性再现是不可能的；因此，大脑刺激所引发的行为动作不会被记忆所固定。
