Anxiety like behaviors and acute fear responding was not affected by early life sleep disruption (ELSD). (a) There were no main effects of ELSD on anxiety like behaviors in the light/dark box (LD Box; 5-min test) although females spent less time in the light portion of the chamber, one indicator of increased anxiety in females (Cohort 1 only). (b) There were no main effects of ELSD on freezing between shock deliveries but there was a trend toward increased freezing behavior in females. N = 12–15/group/sex. Cohorts 1 and 2 are combined. Dotted boxes correspond to data shown. Bar height and symbol are group mean, error bars ± SEM. 2BC = 2-bottle choice. ** p < .01.
