Lack of tolerance to contrast-reducing actions of chlordiazepoxide with repeated reward reductions.

abstract：:The need to obtain data from individual laboratory animals has forced many researchers to singly-house small animals. This is costly to the researcher and isolation can adversely affect animal physiology and behavior which in turn may threaten the validity and generalization of experiment results to humans. We assesse...
