Abstract
Conditioned Responses in A Shuttle Avoidance Apparatus Were Measured For 480 Rats From 12 inbred Strains: Aci, A990, A35322, F344, inr, Ir, Mnr/Har, Mnra, Mr/Har, Ts1, Ts3, Wag. The Results Provide Parametric Data For Methodological Use And Add To The Standardization Of These Strains As Behaviorally Defined Lines. Differences From Previously Reported Data Are Discussed.
