A two-bottle stainless steel holder was located opposite the food compartment. In the present experiment, only one bottle was used; it was placed on the left side for the duration of the experiment. The sipper tube on the bottle was recessed behind a slot, allowing contact circuits to record each lick that the rat made during a 23-h period. | A two-bottle stainless steel holder was located opposite the food compartment.
