Long-term effects on spatial and cued fear memory dynamics induced by SDS, SPS, or the combination of both stressors. Long-term effects induced by SDS, SPS, or both stressors in the Morris water maze on (a) escape latencies across trials during each day of the acquisition phase, (b) the latency to cross the platform location, and (c) the number of crossings over the platform location during the probe session. Long-term effects induced by SDS, SPS, or both stressors in the auditory fear conditioning paradigm on (d) percentage of time spent in freezing during the first and last tone presentations at conditioning (day 1), (e) mean percentage of time spent in freezing during the three blocks of four trials each at extinction (day 2), (f) mean percentage of time in spent freezing during all eight trials at extinction retrieval (day 3). *, p < 0.05 vs. CTRL-CTRL group; §, p < 0.05 vs. CTRL-CTRL group; #, p < 0.05 vs. CTRL-SPS group; ##, p < 0.01 vs. CTRL-SPS group. (N = 8–11 rats per group or N = 8–12 rats per group, in the Morris water maze or auditory fear conditioning tasks, respectively).
