Elevated glucocorticoid levels have been reported to accompany certain psychiatric and cognitive disorders, but it is not clear whether this is an underlying cause or a consequence of these diseases.The two broad aims of the present thesis were to investigate potential rewarding properties of corticosterone in C57BL/6J male mice and to examine their long term impacts on cognition. In the first experiment, mice were subjected to a prolonged two bottle choice test to measure their preference for the stress hormone. Results indicated that mice were motivated to self administer corticosterone at high doses and this was accompanied by enhanced dopamine turnover in the striatum, suggesting that the rewarding effects of corticosterone involve the mesolimbic dopamine pathway; the activity of which is enhanced by the majority of addictive drugs.
