The z-scores for individual GCX rats relative to the SHAM distribution for different behavioral tests.

<p>The z-scores calculated are relative to SHAM-LiCl mean and SD for Taste/Water Ratios to 0.1 M sucrose (CS; top), and relative to the full SHAM group for detection testing and discrimination training. Dashed line indicates a z-score of 1.96 (or -1.96 for discrimination phases), the criterion for being classified as impaired on a task. Red bars indicate rats with lesions meeting the inclusion criteria for behavioral analyses (≥50% of GC and ≥70% of the GC “core” containing a lesion).
