“…The results of this study showed that a social differentiation appeared in all groups of rats exposed to the diving-for-food situation, each group being composed of an equal number of vehicle- and DZ-treated rats. The respective proportions of carriers and noncarriers were very close to 50%, which was consistent with previous studies (Colin & Desor, 1986; Helder et al, 1995; Krafft et al, 1994; Thullier et al, 1992). As previously shown (Schroeder, Collignon, et al, 1994; Schroeder, Humbert, Desor, & Nehlig, 1997; Schroeder, Humbert, Koziel, et al, 1995), early DZ treatment induced a loss of weight at the adult stage.…”
