From: A matter of timing: harm reduction in learned helplessness

Figure 2

Reanalysis of data from 130 Sprague Dawley rats tested for learned helplessness with (n = 92) or without prior exposition to inescapable shock (n = 38). A: Latency until pressing the lever across the 15 trials of the test for learned helplessness is presented separately for the groups (without inescapable shock, with inescapable shock) as means ± SEM. As indicated by the red box, the latency difference between animals with and without inescapable shock was most pronounced in trials 8 to 10. B and C: ROC-curves: Latencies measurements of the trials 8 to 10 discriminated animals with and without inescapable shock with the same sensitivity and specificity as trials 1 to 15 did.
