title: A multivariate statistical summary of synaptic plasticity measures in rats exposed to complex, social and individual environments.
abstract: Multivariate analysis of variance, canonical discriminant analysis, factor analysis, and stepwise multiple regression were applied to 36 variables representing measures of occipital cortical synaptic, cellular, and vascular morphology in rats reared in complex, social, and individual housing environments. The results indicate differential expression of coordinated vascular and cellular metabolic processes across the three environments.
