p. 474: ‘In agreement with an earlier report by Overstreet et al (2002), activity was not diminished in the group that received 4.5% ethanol diet continuously (ETOH-Cont), or by the group exposed to the multiple withdrawals (ETOH-Cy3) from the ethanol diet, whereas a small reduction in activity was observed in the rats that underwent a single withdrawal from a 5-day ethanol diet exposure (ETOH-Cy1; see Figure 2b).’
