Schematic figure depicting experimental design.

Notes: Top line represents the initial day of testing. After being habituated to the experimental chambers for 24 hours, rats were exposed to three different demonstrator rats. The rats were then given a baseline preference task. Bottom line represents the testing and manipulation of rats. Following baseline testing, rats were placed in either CC, DC, or SD for 24 hours. Immediately following, rats were preference-tested again (24-hour retest). All rats were returned to their home cage for 2 days before being given a final preference-testing (72-hour retest).

Abbreviations: CC, cage control; DC, device control; Demo, demonstrator; SD, sleep-deprived.
