The performance of WKY rats on three tests of emotional behavior.

Physiology & behavior - 1 May 1992

Paré W P

Abstract excerpt

The behavior of Wistar, Fischer-344, and WKY male rats was observed on three tests of emotional behavior. These included the defensive-withdrawal test, the elevated plus maze, and the conditioned defensive-burying test. Rats were subsequently exposed to the water-restraint ulcerogenic procedure. Fischer-344 rats were more active in the defensive-withdrawal tests, but other behavioral measures in this test did not...
