Upon reaching maturity the offspring (N = 88) of animals exposed during pregnancy to ethanol and plain water, respectively, served as Ss in a shock-elicited aggression test. Significantly higher levels of aggression were shown by those animals that had received prenatal ethanol exposure. Several ethanol-related birth effects were also noted.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
