Nonhuman
primates
Deneau,
Yanagita, and Seevers, 1969 (25)
|
Rhesus
monkeys
|
Intravenous
injections (1-5 mg/kg,an unspecified caffeine salt) were dependent
on a lever-press response under FR 1 schedule; 24-hr access for
as long as 18 weeks; if self-injection was not spontaneously initiated,
then animals received programmed injections.
|
Self-injection
was maintained in all 5 monkeys at one or more dose(s), although
programmed injections were required to initiate self-injection
on some occasions; the pattern of self-injection was sporadic,
with irregular intervals of self-injection alternating with periods
of abstinence.

Schuster,
Woods, and Seevers, 1969 (96)
|
Rhesus
monkeys
|
Intravenous
injections (1-5 mg/kg caffeine) were dependent on lever- press
response; 24-hr access; some animals tested after 1-month of programmed
administration.
|
Self-injection
was maintained in 1 of 4 monkeys.
|
Yanagita,
1970 (110)
|
Rhesus
monkeys
|
Intravenous
injections (0.25-4) mg/kg caffeine) were dependent on lever-press
response; 4-hr access for 3 days after substitution for SPA.
|
Self-injection
was not maintained in 4 monkeys when caffeine was substituted
for SPA, a CNS stimulant which maintains high rates of self-injection.

Hoffmeister
and Wuttke, 1973 (61)
|
Rhesus
monkeys
|
Intravenous
injections (0.2 mg/kg caffeine) were dependent on lever- press
response under FR 10 schedule; 3-hr access for 6 days after substitution
for codeine.
|
Self-injection
was not maintained at the single dose level tested in 3 monkeys
when caffeine was substituted for codeine.

Brady, and Bradford, 1979 (52)
|
Baboons
|
Intravenous
injections (0.1-10.0 mg/kg caffeine citrate) were dependent on
lever-press response under FR 160 schedule 3-hr time-out; 24-hr
access for 15 days after substitution for cocaine.
|
Self-injection
was maintained in all 3 baboons at 3.2 mg/kg/inj; self- injection
performance was sporadic across days in 2 or 3 baboons.

|
Baboons
|
Intravenous
injections (0.1-10.0 mg/kg caffeine citrate) were dependent on
lever-press response under FR 160 schedule 3-hr time-out; 24-hr
access for15 days after substitution for cocaine.
|
Self-injection
was maintained in all 3 baboons at 3.2 mg/kg/inj; self- injection
performance was sporadic across days in 2 or 3 baboons.

Sannerud, and Kaminski, (Figure

|
Baboons
|
Intravenous
injections (0.1 mg/kg caffeine citrate) were dependent on lever-press
response under FR 2 schedule; 50 injections or 2 hr, whichever
came first, for 9-13 weeks.
|
Self-injection
was maintained in all 3 baboons; self-injection was sporadic across
days in all 3 baboons.
|
Rats
Atkinson
and Enslen, 1976 (3)
|
Rats
|
Intravenous
injections (0.3-5 mg/kg caffeine) were dependent on Lever-press
response under FR 1 schedule of 24-hr access for 3-7 days; some
rats received forced pretreatment with caffeine for up to 98 hr
before self-injection.
|
Self-injection
of caffeine was maintained in 5 of an estimated total of 18 rats
tested at doses of 1-5 mg/kg; self-injection was maintained up
to 4 days and decreased thereafter, self-injection occurred in
animals with and without caffeine pretreatment.

Collins,
Weeks, Cooper, Good, and Russell, 1984 (20)
|
Rats
|
Intravenous
injections (1 mg/kg caffeine) ere dependent on lever- press response
under FR 1 Schedule; 24-hr access for 9 days, with the dose reduced
to 0.1 mg/kg on day 6.
|
Self-injection
was maintained in 2 of 6 rats.
|
Dworkin,
Vrana, Broadbent, and Robinson, 1993 (28)
|
Rats
|
Intravenous
injections (0.25 mg/injection caffeine) were dependent on lever-press
response under FR 1 schedule; 1- to 3- hr access for 30 days after
training food-maintained responding.
|
Self-injection
of caffeine was maintained in the 3 rats tested at about 15 and
8 responses/hr over first 5 and 30 days, respectively;maintenance
of self-injection was concluded, although no vehicle control data
were presented.
