title: Differences in learning and extinction in response to vasopressin in six inbred mouse strains.
abstract: Vasopressin was found to enhance acquisition of conditioned avoidance responses in one inbred mouse strain and to retard extinction; in another inbred mouse strain vasopressin depressed the acquisition of conditioned avoidance; in four additional inbred mouse strains vasopressin had no effect on conditioned avoidance learning.
