AbstractAlthough impairments of motivational and consummatory aspects of reward behavior are core symptoms of several psychiatric disorders, the underlying neural and molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here we report that blocking either c-Fos or matrix metalloproteinase 9 in the central amygdala disrupts approach motivation and appetitive discrimination learning, but not reward consumption. Further, we show that manipulation of c-Fos-MMP-9 pathway does not affect aversive motivation and learning. These findings reveal molecular mechanism of motivational anhedonia.

This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data analysis using triangulation techniques. The results of the analysis of observations, interviews, and assignment documents show that there are differences before and after the subject was given intervention. In general, self-regulated learning intervention has a positive impact on learning motivation and learning abilities of the subject. Several factors that support and inhibit intervention were explained. Some suggestions are given to develop the further intervention.
