Figure 2

Effect of maternal separation (MS) and environmental enrichment (EE) on percentage open-arm entries (a), percentage open time (b), number of head dips (c) in elevated plus maze and time spent in the centre of an open-field arena (d). Percentage open-arm exploration is quantified relative to the sum of open- and enclosed-arm exploration, in %. *P<0.01 for comparison between MS and animal facility rearing (AFR) groups; Mann−Whitney U test with Bonferroni correction. N is similar to Figure 1. N=14 animals for AFR-Standard, 10 for MS-Standard, 15 for AFR-EE and 10 for MS-EE for D.
