Includes responses that result in nicotine infusion (2-lever, NIC+VS, and NIC-only groups) or saline (SAL-only group).
Includes responses that result in VS presentation (2-lever, NIC+VS, and VS-only groups) or saline (SAL-only group). The SAL-only group is included in both sets of analyses as a ‘nonreinforcement’ control.
