RESUMO
At studying the use by the rats of previous experience in conditions of change of the dominant need and change of learning situation, data were obtained that allowed to evaluate differently the significance of drinking and defensive motivations as a factor providing for dissociated learning of animals. Significance is discussed of motivation factor during the use by the rats of one or other behavioural strategies in the process of learning.

Formation of optical EPs was studied in alert rabbits during postnatal ontogenesis. The pathways of the transmission of light stimuli to the brain cortex were found to develop heterogeneously causing the EPs to have different forms in the early stages of ontogenesis.

Intact rats and rats with lesions of the hippocampus and septum were trained to repeated switching-over of the habit of choosing the reinforced side of the maze as well as to alternation of reinforced side choice. Repeated switchings-over of the habit impedes the subsequent elaboration of the choice alternation ("negative transfer"). In operated animals, the interferating effect of the previous experience is more expressed. The observed deficit of training is due to disturbance in the apparatus limiting the process of search and retrieval of adequate information from the memory.

It has been shown that bilateral lesion of the substantia innominata has caused temporary depression of unconditioned and conditioned alimentary reflexes, disturbances of the elaboration and performance of conditioned reflexes. It is suggested that the latter produced by the operative memory disturbances.

Conditioned food and defensive reflexes have been studied in white rats following bilateral injury of paleo-, archi-, neostriatum, substantia nigra and paleocortex. It has been shown that these deep structures play a role in the operational memory of animals.

The role and the relative significance of paleo-, archi- and neostriatum as well as Corpus Luysii, substantia innominata, substantia nigra, nucl. ruber and the hippocampus, in the mechanism of purposeful behaviour of animals, were studied on cats and rats. It has been shown that the above structures, together with the cerebral cortex, take part in operational memory. The data obtained continue the evolutionary concept of L. A. Orbeli that in higher vertebrates with a well-developed cortex, the deeper brain structures do not lose their initial function, and together with the cortex, participate in the provision for the integrative activity of the brain.

Studies have been made of the effect of bilateral injury of paleo-, archi- and neostriatum, as well as that of the nucleus ruber on adaptive behaviour in albino rats. It was shown that injury of the basal structures of the brain results in disturbances of optimal visual choice of a food signal. The data obtained are discussed from a standpoint of disturbances in operative memory of visual signals. It is suggested that during evolutionary development, when the higher brain functions pass to neocortex, the basal ganglia do not loose their initial role in the higher analytical-synthetic activity.

The role of the pallidum in memory mechanisms was studied in cats by different methods of conditioned reflexes. It has been shown that a bilateral partial lesion of the Globus pallidus leads to "forgetting" sequences in delayed alternation and electrical punishment in previous experiments as well as to disturbances of the perceptual memory.

Effects of the Substantia nigra injury on conditioned activities were studied on rats and cats by defensive and feeding methods, respectively. Bilateral injury of the Substantia nigra led to temporary disappearance of conditioned defensive and feeding motor reflexes, to prolongation of latency and duration of motor reaction. In cats the injury of the Substantia nigra produced a 30--40% decrease of the accuracy of food direction choice. Similar changes were observed following injury of the Nucleus caudatus head.

The role of the hippocampus in animals' conditioned activity was studied in experiments on rats and cats with ablated hippocampus. It was shown that in rats the ablation leads to a statistically significant slowing down in learning of the avoidance reaction. The effect becomes stronger in stress situation. The process of learning and optimization of choice reaction in the maze with alimentary reinforcement if sharply impaired in rats with bilateral ablation of hippocampus. The bilateral ablation of the hippocampus in cats in experiments with choice of the side of the alimentary reinforcement prolonged the latencies and sharply increased the number of erroneous reactions. The obtained data are analyzed in terms of fronto-pallido-hippocampal system, which selects, compares and integrates sensory information at the stage of the afferent synthesis.

Alimentary conditioned motor reflexes in cats were elaborated in special chambers. Subsequently, the subthalamic nucleus was damaged, first on one and then on the other side. After its unilateral destruction, temporary disturbance in the cat behaviour was observed disappearing within 2--3 weeks. Bilateral destruction of the subthalamic nucleus led to a stable disturbance in the reaction of choice of reinforcement side in conditions of uncertainty.

Unilaternal ablation of the pallidum leads to acute disturbances in delayed reaction in cats. In the case of a 3 or 5 sec delay the accuracy of finding the food behind the screan or of the choice of the side of reinforcement drops by 30 to 40%; in the case of a delay of 10 sec this accuracy drops by 55 to 60%. Along with this and as a natural result, it takes the cat a longer time to get to the place where the food is kept. At a 15 sec delay, the previously elaborated delayed reactions disappear completely. After a bilateral incomplete ablation of the pallidum, only some cats with light pallidal lesions succed in acquiring delayed reactions (in 22 to 29% of cases) with a minimum pause (3 sec). It is assumed that the pallidum takes part in the mechanisms of comparison and retention of the traces of sensory information in the apparatus of memory.

2nd somatosensory area (C2) was shown to have modulating influence on evoked activity of the 1st somatosensory and visual areas. Electrical stimulation of C2 evoked short latency potentials in the structures of paleocortex (hippocampus) and striatum (putamen, caudate nucleus). Analysis of the data obtained here and elsewhere (19) suggests the important role of C2 in mechanisms of selection, comparison and integration of adequate sensory information under conditions of uncertainty, for the programming of behaviour.
