Male rats were trained at three separate currents to bar press for intracranial self-stimulation. On days 1 and 15, all subjects were given 1-(2-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-methoxy)-ethyl-4-(3-phenylpropyl) piperazine, also known as GBR 12909 (10 mg/kg, i.p.), prior to test session. Between these days, the paired Chronic-before group was injected (every other day) with GBR 12909 prior to intracranial self-stimulation, while unpaired, Chronic-after group was given the drug just after the end of the session. A third group (Control) received saline injections (i.p.) 20 min following the session. Although GBR 12909 was found to be reward enhancing, neither sensitization nor tolerance developed to the rewarding and performance/motor effects regardless of the injection regimen. In addition, the rewarding effects of intracranial self-stimulation were found to be independent of both current and environment-specific pairing. The present data obtained for GBR 12909 agree with previous observations of the effects of repeated administration of drugs of abuse on intracranial self-stimulation.
