Overall fluid consumption (mL/100 g of body weight) during 2-h, two-bottle intake tests, in Experiment 1 as a function of age (adolescent or adult), stress treatment (5 daily sessions of 2 h of restraint stress, or no stress exposure, during postnatal days (PD) 30–34 or 70–74, for adolescents and adults, respectively), and ethanol treatment at PD34 or PD74 (2 h after termination of the last stress session animals were challenged with 0.0 or 2.5 g/kg ethanol). Values express mean ± SEM.
