Table 2. Average dopamine transient amplitude.
The peak amplitude of each dopamine transient was averaged across all transients within a trial, then averaged across trials and then across rats for the PreCS, CSSuc and CSPel periods (top value). Between-subject SEM is shown below in italics. ANOVA on these data shows neither a significant main effect of CS period (F2,14=0.82, p=0.46), nor of Need state (F1,7=0.69, p=0.43), with no significant between these factors (F2,14=0.96, p=0.41).
