Within-subjects repeated-measures ANOVAs were performed for each behavior. Significant effects in the within-subjects repeated-measures ANOVAwere followed by the SNK post hoc test. The F and p values are shown if the effects in the ANOVA were significant

n.s. non-significant; n.p. tests not performed because of data with no variance in one or more groups (e.g., all values of 0 for a behavior in one group); n.a. post hoc test not performed because no significant effect was found in the ANOVA; BSL baseline; SA self-administration; WD withdrawal
