7. Drugs and motivation
• The use of "smart drugs", also known as nootropics, as
"motivation-enhancers".
• The effects of many of these drugs on the brain are emphatically
not well understood, and their legal status often makes open
experimentation difficult.
• Converging neurobiological evidence also supports the idea that
addictive drugs such as cocaine, nicotine, alcohol, and heroin act
on brain systems underlying motivation for natural rewards,
such as the mesolimbic dopamine system.
• Therefore, drugs can hijack brain systems underlying other
motivations, causing the almost singular pursuit of drugs
characteristic of addiction.
