Mean (±s.e.m.) levels of conditioned stimulus (CS)-elicited freezing at test in corticosterone-exposed (CORT; white bars) and vehicle-exposed (VEH; black bars) rats tested either 1 or 10 days post-fear conditioning. At 1 day post-training, CORT (n=7) and VEH (n=10) rats expressed high and similar levels of fear. However, at 10 days post-training, CORT (n=11) rats exhibited much higher levels of fear than did VEH (n=10) rats.
