Table 2. Results of statistical analyses used to analyze conditioned place preferences between male and female animals injected with 0, 1.5, 3, or 6 mg/kg of α-PVP.

The 4 × 2 mixed model ANOVA in female rats (left) showed no main effect of Test [F(1,34)=3.410, p= 0.074], no main effect of Dose [F(3,34)= 1.594, p=0.209], and no interaction of Test x Dose [F(3,34)= 2.265, p= 0.099]. The 4 × 2 mixed model ANOVA in male subjects (right) revealed no main effect of Test [F(1,37)=3.697, p = 0.062] and no main effect of Dose [F(3, 37)=0.625, p = 0.604], but there was a significant interaction of Test x Dose [F(3,37)= 3.409, p = 0.027].
