Skin conductance response (SCR) during the spontaneous recovery and reinstatement tests 6 months after extinction. *P < 0.05, compared with the SCR to the CS+ in the food group. The SCR to the CS+ in the fasting group was lower than that in the food group in the spontaneous recovery or reinstatement test. Food, n = 13; Fasting, n = 17. The data are expressed as mean ± SEM
