Abstract

Rats were maintained at either 80% or 95% of their initial ad lib weights or their expected weights. Weights were then shifted from 80% to 95%. The effects of level of percentage body weight loss and the effects of shifting percentage body weight loss on straight alley performance were independent of method of weight maintenance.
