Note. Repeatedly separated pups were exposed to 8h–MS on postnatal day 3, 4 & 5 in a home (HOME-SEP; home separated) or novel context (NOVEL-SEP; novel separated) and tested in the behavioral tasks post-weaning. Rats, non-separated as pups (no history of postnatal treatments) served as controls. Based on data from Daskalakis et al., 2009a; Daskalakis, 2011; Daskalakis et al., 2012.
