Figure 8

Parameters of the light/dark test. (a) Latency (in seconds) to enter the dark zone of SAL and CRF offspring. (b) Number of head pokes by SAL and CRF offspring. (c) Latency (in seconds) to enter the dark zone of CT and LB offspring. (d) Number of head pokes by CT and LB offspring. Results are presented as means SEM. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, two-way ANOVA, treatment-effect. n = 10–12 animals per group. SAL, offspring of saline-infused dams; CRF, offspring of corticotropin-releasing factor-infused dams; CT, offspring of control dams; LB, offspring of stressed dams.
