    Abstract Why do interactions become more hostile when social relations shift from "me versus you" to "us versus them"? One possibility is that acting with a group can reduce spontaneous self-referential processing in the moral domain and, in turn, facilitate competitor harm. We tested this hypothesis in an fMRI experiment in which (i) participants performed a competitive task once alone and once with a group; (ii) spontaneous self-referential processing during competition was indexed unobtrusively by activation in an independently localized region of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) associated with self-reference; and (iii) we assessed participants' willingness to harm competitors versus teammates. As predicted, participants who showed reduced mPFC activation in response to descriptions of their own moral behaviors while competing in a group were more willing to harm competitors. These results suggest that intergroup competition (above and beyond inter-personal competition) can reduce self-referential processing of moral information, enabling harmful behaviors towards members of a competitive group.

    Abstract The cerebral nervous system of the larval corn earworm, Heliothis zea, was examined using light microscopy and immunocytochemistry. Immunoreactivity for the molluscan cardioactive peptide FMRF-amide (FMRFa) is widely distributed. Staining is localized in perikarya and axons of the brain, subesophageal ganglion and first thoracic ganglion. Immunoreactive axons are also found in the frontal ganglion and the corpora cardiaca. Crossreactivity studies for FMRFa and bovine pancreatic polypeptide (BPP) demonstrate that (a) the immunoreactive material is more FMRFa-like than BPP-like and (b) the antigenic material is heterogeneous. For animals on different feeding regimens, immunocytochemical surveys and radioimmunoassay suggest the observed variation in immunoreactivity among individuals is unrelated to feeding state.

    Abstract In order to better understand and treat neuropathic pain, scientific study must use methods that can assess pain processing at the cortical level where pain is truly perceived. Operant behavior paradigms can accomplish this. We used an operant task to evaluate changes following chronic constriction injury to the trigeminal nerves. We also relate these behavioral changes to immunohistochemistry of transient receptor potential channels vanilloid 1 and melastatin 8 (TRPV1 and TRPM8) in the trigeminal ganglia. Following nerve injury, successful performance of the operant task was reduced and aversive behaviors were observed with 10 and 37 °C stimulation, indicating cold allodynia and mechanical allodynia respectively. In contrast, while aversive behaviors were observed with 48 °C stimulation, successful performance of the operant task was not substantially hindered following injury. These behavioral changes were accompanied by an increase in TRPV1 positive cells and an increased intensity of TRPM8 staining at 2 weeks post-injury, when cold allodynia is maximal. These findings suggest that the incorporation of operant behavioral assessment in the study of pain may provide insight into the relationship among peripheral changes, motivational drive, and pain. Understanding this relationship will allow us to better treat and prevent chronic neuropathic pain.

    Abstract Wine grape production levels in Australia in 1987-88 are summarised for 14 cvs. In the case of 12 cvs, these levels are compared with projected 1991-92 production levels. For most cvs, the production level of 18 Australian wine regions is presented in graphical form. (M.S. Allen, Wagga Wagga) [D 332]
