---|---|---|---|
Bar test | Hindlimb test | Schedule-controlled responding | |
GHB | 484.8 ± 14.2 | 546.3 ± 10.2 | 282.2 ± 15.4 |
Haloperidol | 0.16 ± 0.02 | 0.21 ± 0.02 | 0.03 ± 0.00 |
Predicted | 215.0 ± 9.6 | 240.4 ± 6.1 | 147.1 ± 2.8 |
Observed | 248.2 ± 7.1 | 177.7 ± 8.8 | 147.1 ± 1.2 |
Predicted/observed | 0.87 (NS) | 1.35 (NS) | 1.00 (NS) |
The D50 values observed with the combination of GHB and haloperidol were compared with the values expected from additivity by means of the modified t test described by Tallarida (2000).
