^*Mean escape latency (sec., ± SD) to reach the platform, of 8 trials/day/rat, maximum 60 sec.

^†By repeated measures ANOVA there was no between-group difference in escape latency, however rats in both groups exhibited a decrease in mean escape latency over time (p<0.0001 for testing day), i.e. both groups exhibited evidence of learning.

^‡Mean (±SD) percent of total swim time spent in virtual quadrant that formerly contained platform. No between-group difference was detected.
