Short-term memory performance of socially isolated vs. group housed mice in the novelty recognition test. Mean ± CI₉₅. (A) Permanence time on familiar and novel object. Isolated mice fail to distinguish novel object; Two-way ANOVA with Tukey post hoc test, n = 10/group, *= p < 0.05. (B, C) Recognition (IR) and Discrimination (ID) indexes, respectively. Even with no statistical differences, effect size for both were medium to large; Unpaired t-student test, Cohen’s effect size, n = 10/group.
