[Effect of piracetam on the conditional reflex memory under probable reinforcement conditions].
The effect of piracetam on the development of a two-link system of feed-procuring conditioned reflexes was studied in rats with probability reinforcement. The experiments showed that piracetam improves both the current learning process and the memory track (previous experience) reproduction. In addition, the drug decreases the role of the probabilic character of reinforcement, thus facilitating the synthesis of two reflexes in a united functional complex.
