Saccharin intake (ml/100 g) during conditioning and test sessions in male and female adolescent rats as a function of ethanol treatment during initiation (PD28) and conditioning (PD31). On PD28, the rats were treated with ethanol (2.5 g/kg, i.g.) or its vehicle (tap water, 0.0 g/kg). During conditioning (PD31), saccharin intake was paired with ethanol administration (2.5 g/kg, i.g.) or its vehicle (tap water, 0.0 g/kg). The length of conditioning and test sessions was 30 and 60 min, respectively. Data were collapsed across sex (male or female). The sex factor did not exert a significant main effect or significantly interact with the remaining variables. The vertical bars indicate SEM.
