EnglishThis article studies the functioning and the historical development of the Hospital de San Cosme y San Damian, the first and oldest institution of Seville which main function was «healing the insane without sense».

Liddell, the experiments on behavior disorders in animals encouraged a great deal of interest during the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s in the United States. Even though these studies were mainly carried out with non-human animals, the awarding of prestigious scienti@c prizes to some of these investigations paved the way to the conviction that the laboratory revolution would reach to Psychopathology. In this paper, we will explore the contrasting approaches to the study of abnormal behavior in animals carried out by H. S. Liddell, W. H. Gantt, Norman R. Maier, and Jules Masserman. In order to understand the signi@cance of these research programs, we will focus our analysis not only in the divergent methodologies and theoretical constructs proposed to explain these phenomena, but also in some of the convergent arguments used to justify the relevance of these animal studies for the understanding of human psychopathology –i.e. the observed similarity between...

Entre su amplia correspondencia, se encuentran los hombres más eminentes en el terreno de la psiquiatría y de la psicología de su época. En este trabajo examinaremos la correspondencia entre A. Meyer y uno de los psiquiatras y psicólogos españoles más eminentes, Emilio Mira (1896-1964) con el de hacernos idea de la signiicación del español para su homólogo americano. Para obtener una imagen completa, estudiaremos las cartas que se intercambiaron, incluyendo la correspondencia corporativa en la que ambos estuvieron implicados. Además consideraremos las anotaciones relevantes de los diarios de Meyer y sus notas de trabajo. Concluiremos que Meyer tenía a Mira en alta estima profesional y conocía directamente sus trabajos, en parte como consecuencia de que ambos compartían muchos de sus supuestos teóricos, epistemológicos y aplica...

When scientific knowledge flows between different countries, the ideas that emerge in one particular national context adapt to the new local contexts of their hosts, with their particular cultural, social, political and scientific traditions. In psychology, the transnational approach provides a productive theoretical framework capable of going beyond the traditional US-centered perspective that has dominated the historiography of psychology since the mid-20th century. This US-based historiography has, for example, interpreted the historical influence of I. P. Pavlov in terms of two main factors: his methodological contribution—the conditioned reflex—and the existence of a behaviorist tradition in the receptor psychol...

P. Pavlov’s Laboratory at Leningrad, animal studies on experimental neurosis encouraged a great deal of interest during the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s in the U.S. Although these studies were mainly carried out with animals, their fi ndings were interpreted as having broad signifi cance for human psychopathology, a fitraditionally dominated by phenomenological and psychoanalytical approaches. In this paper, we will present a preliminary historical approach to the main

Research paper thumbnail of Different involvement of medial prefrontal cortex and dorso-lateral striatum in automatic and controlled processing of a future conditioned stimulus

Controlled attentional mechanisms are said to be important in the early stages of preexposure, while in later stages animals adopt automatic processing of the stimulus to be used for conditioning. Given this distinction, it is possible that both types of processing are governed by different neural systems, affecting differentially the retrieval of information about the stimulus. In the present study we tested if a lesion to the dorso-lateral striatum or to the medial prefrontal cortex has a selective effect on exposure to the future conditioned stimulus (CS). With this aim, animals received different amounts of exposure to the future CS. The results showed that a lesion to the medial prefrontal cortex enhanced latent inhibition in animals receiving limited preexposure to the CS, but had no effect in animals receiving extended preexposure to the CS. The lesion of t...

Physiological studies have demonstrated that LI is a process dependent on striatal dopamine. D2 dopamine receptors have been specifically associated with its expression, while D1 receptor has shown a limited function. However, to evaluate the role of dopamine receptors in LI, it is necessary to analyse their activity during recovery phase, where the mechanisms involved in interference processes are performed. The experiments studied the involvement of the dopaminergic system in the retrieval process of LI. We analysed the effect of the systemic administration of dopaminergic D1 (SCH-23390) and D2 (sulpiride) antagonist during the test phase on LI and on its contextual specificity. Animals were pre-exposed to saccharin solution and conditioned with a LiCl administration in conditioning phase. Dopaminergic antagonist drugs were administered...

After consider what we call the "received view": Pavlov's influence on American psychology is seen mainly, perhaps solely, as related to behaviorism, we present an alternative view in which the influence of the Russian is interpreted in relation to Florence Edna Mateer (1887-1961), William Horsley Gantt (1892-1980) and Howard Scott Liddell (1895-1962).

Eugene Teuber, its first director, began his work at the Station with several studies of anthropoid apes’ natural behavior, particularly chimpanzee body language. In late 1913, the psychologist Wolfgang Köhler, the second and final director of the Station, arrived in Tenerife. During his stay in the Canary Islands, Köhler conducted a series of studies on intelligent behavior in chimpanzees that would become classics in the field of comparative psychology. Those experiments were at the core of his book Intelligenzprüfungen an Menschenaffen (The Mentality of Apes), published in 1921. This paper analyzes Köhler’s experiments and notions of intelligent behavior in chimpanzees, emphasizing his distinctly descriptive approach to these issues. It also makes an effort to elucidate some of the theo...
