Consumption during tests with training food

Paired Unpaired
Food pellets consumption (g)
Test a 4.5±0.9 3.8±0.6
Test b 4.1±1.1 3.1±0.4
Test 1 (min 1–10) 4.9±0.9 3.7±0.5
Test 3 (min 1–10) 4.7±1.0 3.1±0.4
Test 1 (min 11–20)* 1.8±0.4 0.6±0.2
Test 3 (min 11–20)* 1.5±0.3 0.7±0.2

Consumption of training food pellets (mean±S.E.M. g) in the conditioning context during consumption tests. Tests a and b were 10 min in duration and administered after training sessions 6 and 8, respectively. Consumption in Tests 1 and 3, which were 20-min in duration and were administered 5 and 12 days after training, respectively, is shown separately for the first and second 10-min periods. An asterisk indicates statistical significance of the difference between paired and unpaired rats (p<0.03).
