Elevated plus maze results for stress and control offspring. a Trajectory for both groups. b The distance travelled (mm) in the closed arms for both groups. c The total number of arm crosses for both groups. d The total distance (mm) travelled for both groups. e OT% [time spent in open arm (s)/total staying time (s)]. f OE% (number of entries into the open arms/total number of entries into the open arms, closed arms, and centre area). Control offspring: offspring of control group (hollow square, n = 8); stress offspring: offspring of maternal rats subject to SDS stimulation (hollow circle, n = 8); OT: open arm time; OE: open arm entry number; *p < 0.05
