Effects of septal lesions on open-field gregariousness in rats reared prior to surgery in group versus individual cages
Tóm tắt
Septal lesions were given to adult animals which had been reared in isolation or in group cages from 30–90 days of age. Septal lesions and isolated rearing produced additive increases in open-field contact time. These results were similar to those observed in a previous study in which septal lesions were produced in infancy and followed by differential housing. Emotionality and activity were also affected by lesion and housing condition; however, the pattern of results was interactive on these two variables.
