[The motivational dominant and goal-directed behavior].
The experimental studies of motivational dominants of thirst and hunger and "polarization" motor dominant as well as the analysis of formation of the I- and II-type conditioned responses lead to the conclusion that discontinuation of a motivational dominant plays a key role in goal-directed behavior. The activation of backward connections between corresponding centers forms the basis for realization of goal-directed behavior.
