Figure 5: T-Maze execution on adult rats exposed to environmental noise when juveniles. Top Chart shows results of correct responses across sessions illustrating Mean ± SEM. Significant interactions were found on mean percent of correct responses for sessions 1 and 3 (*P < 0.05) where EN exposed animals showed a reduced number of correct responses. Middle chart shows results of correct latency quantification. Significant interactions were found on sessions 3 and 4 where EN exposed animals increased the latency to respond correctly (*P < 0.05). Bottom chart shows mean percent of correct responses (10 trials/day) on the forced alternation task with delays of 10 (day 9), 30 (day 10), and 60 sec (day 11). Exposed rats showed less percent of correct responses when a 60 sec delay period was introduced (*P < 0.05)
