or non-intoxicated demonstrator, separate rats were used, for a total of three groups of observer-demonstrator dyads (control, 0.5 and 1.5 g/kg). This cycle was repeated three additional times for a total of four pairings with an alcohol-free peer and four pairings with an alcohol-intoxicated peer (or eight pairings with an alcohol-free peer for control rats). Each observer socially interacted with the same demonstrator for all conditioning sessions. On the final day, PND 35, all rats underwent a post-conditioning test to assess changes in time spent in the designated paired chamber (Maldonado and Kirstein, unpublished data).
