海馬體
海馬體(粵拼:hoi2 maa5 tai2;英文:hippocampus)係個腦嘅邊緣系統(limbic system)嘅一個重要部份,背側(dorsal)嘅部份同多種記憶功能好有拏褦。
功能
編輯睇埋:犒賞系統
海馬體前部(anterior)嘅一個重要功能係處理趨近定遠離衝突(approach-avoidance conflict)-趨近定遠離衝突係一種情況,指隻動物感知到一個刺激,個刺激可以係犒賞、但又有可能係行為懲罰,例如佢離遠見到隻動物,隻動物有可能係同伴(犒賞)又有可能係獵食者(行為懲罰),搞到隻動物想趨近隻動物但同時又想遠離佢[1];如果海馬體前部受到啟動,隻動物一般會進入慎重趨近(cautious approach)狀態,即係話佢會作出趨近,但同時將注意力變成集中於留意周圍有冇危險,以便一旦真係有危險就可以即刻發覺同進入戰鬥定逃走(fight-or-flight)狀態[2][3]。
