Evidence for a role of 5-HT^sub 2C^ receptors in the motor aspects of performance, but not the efficacy of food reinforcers, in a progressive ratio schedule

5-Hydroxytryptamine^sub 2C^ (5-HT^sub 2C^) receptor agonists reduce the breakpoint in progressive ratio schedules of reinforcement, an effect that has been attributed to a decrease of the efficacy of positive reinforcers. However, a reduction of the breakpoint may also reflect motor impairment. Math...
