Correlation between Arc and sexual behaviors. Correlations between the number of immunopositive cells and behavior, when all copulating males are combined independent of experience. Pearson’s r and associated p-values are reported. IL= intromission latency, NM = total number of mounts, IF = intromission frequency.
