Function numbers match the order of the percentage of the variance explained by the respective functions. Each function maximizes separation between groups based on main effect of sex, main effect of gavage treatment, or an interaction between these two factors, on the listed behaviors. Italicized numbers indicate the highest three correlations and therefore deemed most important for the discriminant function
