Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The development of avoidance conditioned reflexes of various complexity is accompanied by an increase, correlated with this complexification, in the incorporation of newly synthesized catecholamines (primarily dopamine) into the general catecholamine fraction of the striatum and with an increase, independent of reflex complexity, in this parameter in the substantia nigra.

  2. 2.

    The realization of avoidance reflexes is accompanied by an increase, independent of reflex complexity, in the incorporation of newly synthesized catecholamines (primarily dopamine) into the general cetecholamine fraction of the striatum. The substantia nigra responds with an increase in this parameter only during the realization of a reflex of unilateral avoidance.
