Naturally motivated behaviors, like sexual behavior, are subject to behavioral plasticity, which can affect neuronal function. The purpose of this study was to investigate the plasticity of sexual behavior and neural ...
Research over the past three decades has demonstrated that many neural changes occur in response to rewarding stimuli and behavior. However, most of this research has focused on the changes that occur following drug use ...
In this study we examined whether sexual communication, sexual education, first sexual encounter, pornography consumption, and body esteem were predictors of sexual satisfaction. Through Internet recruitment of individuals ...
Natural rewards and drug reinforcement cause an increase in frequency in motivated behaviors that are aimed at obtaining different rewards. These changes in behavior are reflecting changes in neurobiology. The majority of ...
