Disparate cocaine-induced locomotion as a predictor of choice behavior in rats trained in a delay-discounting task.

Heightened impulsivity and differential sensitivity to a drug's behavioral effects are traits that, individually, have been associated with chronic drug use and dependence. Here, we used an animal model to test whether individual differences in cocaine-induced activity are predictive of impulsive choice behavior. Adult, male Sprague-Dawley rats were given cocaine (10mg/kg, i.
