| Abstract | Choice of a male or female social contact was studied in intact female rats in a runway-choice apparatus during estrous cycle, pregnancy, and lactation. The male was chosen significantly more often during proestrus/estrus than during the diestrous days of the cycle. During pregnancy this preference in choice declined only to reappear gradually during the lactation period. The shifts in the level of motivation to seek out the male support previous studies and point to the significance of estrogen in producing the preference for the male. |
