This project contains the withdrawal study component from the Gould nicotine study. Cohorts here include saline controls and nicotine dose groups of 3, 6.3, and 12 mg/kg.

Procedures conducted:
• behavior observation  Observed measures of anxiety during nicotine withdrawal. Nicotine (several high doses) vs. control.
• elevated plus maze  Measures of anxiety during nicotine withdrawal. Nicotine (several high doses) vs. control.
• fear conditioning test  Contextual fear, cued fear during nicotine withdrawal. Nicotine (high and several lower doses) vs. control.

Mice: inbred   8 strains   ♂   age 8-12wks   4 experimental groups
