Figure 3.

Performance of aged animals in the WM shown as a mean of (A) latency, (B) path length, and (C) velocity to find the hidden platform, as in Figure 2. Data are represented as the means ± SEM. All aged animals learned to find the hidden platform along the sessions (Repeated-Measures ANOVA), but epileptic animals performed worse than aged control (Student Newman–Keuls post hoc test). AC (white circle): aged controls; AE-short (black square): aged with status epilepticus at 20 months of age; and AE-long (gray diamond): aged with status epilepticus at 3 months of age.
