Experiment 3: EOD Exposure | Start weight | 331.38±3.85 | 333.38±3.03 | 330.5±6.74 | 339.38±7.28 |
Final weight | 366.25±4.39 | 361.75±4.07 | 359.63±7.52 | 363.13±8.32 | |

Table displays starting weight (mean± SEM in grams), final weight, and directional % body weight change for each group across 0, 2, 4, or 6 exposures to ethanol (4 g/kg i.g) on either consecutive days for a total of 6 experimental days (Experiment 1), or intermittent every-other-day [EOD], for a total of 12 experimental days (Experiment 3). A lettering system was used to denote differences across groups in accordance with Tukey’s post-hoc test; groups that share a letter were statistically comparable (p < 0.05).
