Table 1.
Raw data for behavioral tests separated by sex. No significant effects of sex were seen in any of the behavioral measured and therefore the data were collapsed across sex for all analyses. There was a significant interaction between sex and knockout on the number of food pellets earned on day 10 but the pairwise comparisons did not reveal any significant differences.
