Translational Difficulties in Querying Rats on “Orientation”

Figure 6

Daily mean ± SEM escape latency (black solid line, left Y-axis) and mean rank ± SEM of visits to the actual target zone out of the two possible locations (orange (dark gray) dashed line, right Y-axis) in trial 1 across 8 + 5 days of 2 daily trials (noon and evening) in the 2-platform experiment of 12 Lister Hooded rats. Measurements on days 9–13 happened after one month break. Rank 1 represents the choice of swimming directly to target, rank 1.5 indicates chance level (shown as blue dotted line).
