Note. Data are presented as mean ± S.E. Scores are on a 1–4 scale; criteria adjusted for stage of development and age. Due to the outbred nature of the CD-1 mouse strain, the mean score for controls was less than 4. Dashes (–) signify time points where no measure was taken within the given study. N = 10–21 adult females per treatment group per time point for the restricted-exposure study. N = 4 litters (3 pups per litter) per treatment group per time point for the early-life effects cross-foster study. N = 9–18 adult females per treatment group per time point for the late-life effects cross-foster study. Statistical comparisons made are with controls within a given study; inter-group comparisons can be found in Section 3.
