Figure 4. Ethanol withdrawal produces increases in compulsive-like behavior.

Figure 4

Mice experiencing ethanol withdrawal were tested in the marble burying paradigm for 30 min. Marbles were considered buried if they were 2/3 covered with bedding. Mice treated with ethanol injections (A) and liquid ethanol diet (B) buried more marbles, suggesting that they were experiencing an increase in compulsive-like behavior during ethanol withdrawal. **p<0.01 compared to control treated mice as measured by student t-test. N’s are 13, 12 for injections and 13, 13 for liquid diet.
