Abstract:		"Fourteen male albino rats kept in pairs were implanted with bipolar electrodes in the olfactory tubercle. Electrical stimulation elicited a behavioral change in the cage-mates of the stimulated rats. This change consisted of increased exploratory activity in six animals. In three of these six rats, sexual behavior with mounting and pelvic thrusting was observed. The changes are described and discussed with special attention to sexual behavior"
