General Conclusions From Present State of Data Analysis
For the baseline activity, relatively good stability of the genetic differences is seen across site with virtually no meaningful influence of shipping status.
Cocaine stimulated activity does vary considerably across site, but in an interactive manner with genotype.
Strong patterns of genetic influence in the water escape task are only partly consistent across site and shipping status.
Strain differences in alcohol consumption are relatively stable across site although a main effect of site is present.
Elevated Plus Maze indices show considerably less cross site stability.
The cross-site stability of strain differences is thus likely to be highly task-dependent.
