Two different intensities of prenatal stress (moderate and mild) were employed. The results showed sexually dimorphic behavioural and anatomical results that varied with the intensity of the stress. The enriched environment reversed some of the behavioural deficits related to stress and lesion. Both mild prenatal stress and the vitamin -supplemented diet reversed all frontal lesion behavioural deficits. en_CA Lethbridge, Alta. : University of Lethbridge, Dept. of Neuroscience Arts and Science Department of Neuroscience Thesis (University of Lethbridge.
