Description
Performance on three preoperative and three postoperative
copulation tests was compared for male rats given dorsal
hippocampal, dorsal hippocampal plus cortical, other lesion,
and sham lesions. Dorsal hippocampal lesions produced
statistically significant changes in the temporal pacing
of some components of sexual behavior, i.e. the post-ejaculatory interval, intercopulatory interval, and total
test time decreased. Hippocampal plus cortical lesions
had no effect on sexual behavior. The results are interpreted
as supporting a model of inhibition in which a
sexual inhibitory process is built up concomitantly with
the sexual arousal process.
