There was a significant Prepulse × Amphetamine interaction and a Prepulse intensity × Dizocilpine × Gender interaction. Therefore, male and female data are shown separately for dizocilpine but combined for amphetamine. Means ± SEM. Significantly different from saline at the same prepulse intensity with two tailed Dunnett’s post hoc tests, represented by
