Figure 2: Baseline testing in the Elevated Plus Maze (EPM)

On Day 0, Dom and Sub mice showed no constitutive differences in risk-assessment behavior in the EPM. Two-way t-test detected no disparity between in preference for the closed arms (A), rate of entry to the open arms (B) or total arm entries (C) of the two strains. Data are presented as mean ±SEM, n=10; OT/TT: time in open arms/total time; OE/TE: entries to open arms/total arm entries; Dom: Dominant; Sub: Submissive.
