Behavior in the novel object test after the 24-h delay was altered by predatory stress. (a) Percentage of time spent with the novel object was unaltered by predatory stress during the no-delay task (p > 0.05). (b) Percentage of time spent with the novel object was unaltered by predatory stress during the hour-delay task (p > 0.05). (c) Chronic predatory stress increased the percentage of time spent with novel object in the 24-h delay task. Data shown are mean ± SEM; asterisk indicates significance at p < 0.05 in a paired two-tailed t-test.
