Pearson correlations between log-transformed corticosterone levels and behavior in the elevated plus maze and social interaction test. Pearson correlations between individual log-transformed serum corticosterone levels and percent arm time spent in the open arms of the elevated plus maze (A) and latency to first open arm entry in the elevated plus maze (B) were determined for group housed mice in Experiment 2. Pearson correlations between individual log-transformed serum corticosterone levels and social preference in the social interaction test were determined after collapsing across housing conditions for mice in Experiments 1 and 3 (C). Pearson r-values are reported on the right side of each corresponding graph, along with the associated p-value. Bolded and asterisked p-values indicate values < 0.05.
