Social interaction test. (A) BALB/cJ mice treated with vehicle and 3 mg/kg i.p. methylphenidate (MPH) show a preference for the non-social zone. (B) The dose of 3 mg/kg i.p. MPH increased the preference for the non-social cylinder in comparison to the social cylinder and the vehicle-treated mice. (C) Both the vehicle-treated and 10 mg/kg i.p. MPH-treated mice show a longer interaction time with the social cylinder, while this is not the case for the 3 mg/kg group. Abbreviations: VEH, vehicle; MPH3, 3 mg/kg i.p. MPH; MPH10, 10 mg/kg i.p. MPH. N = 12 per group, #p < 0.10; *p < 0.05; ***p < 0.001.
