[The interaction of "animal hypnosis" and the motivational dominant of hunger].

The study of the interaction between the "animal hypnosis" and hunger dominant after its multiple creation showed that the first applications of the forced immobilization against the background of hunger dominant optimum elicited the long-lasting hypnotic state of the animal (4-20 minutes). The hunger dominant was retained in hypnotic state of the animal, i.e., the testing stimuli produced summation swallowing and masticatory movements. Moreover, in some cases facilitatory influence of the "animal hypnosis" was observed on summation properties of the dominant focus in the motivational "hunger center". In the process of repetitions of "animal hypnosis" experiments against the background of the hunger dominant it became difficult to induce the hypnotic state in the majority of the animals, i.e., the longer fixation of rabbits was required and the duration of the hypnotic state reduced. These findings can be indicative of the inhibitory influence of hunger dominant on "animal hypnosis".
