Mice of two strains selected for successful solution of "object permanence" test and for lack of such solution demonstrated the differential reaction to injections of two drugs. The effects of injections of atomoxetine. which blocks the noradrenaline reuptake, and of 'non-benzodiazepine" anxiolytic afobazol was different.
