The data are presented as the mean values (± SEM). The number of crossed quadrants, number of rearings, time spent in the central area and time of freezing were measured at OF1 and OF2. One- way ANOVA did not show significant differences among groups at OF1, which allowed the use of OF1 as a pool. *: Significant difference between test days (OF1 and OF2) p < 0.05.
