Abstract
P-Chlorophenylalanine methyl ester and the ester plus pargyline have been reported to facilitate sexual mounting behavior in animals, but these studies have shown only a facilitation of homosexual mounting. The present study indicates that these agents do not enhance the probability or frequency of heterosexual interactions in rats.Keywords
