All <br />trials within a group are combined. Asterisks denote rates that are significantly lower than the pretreatment rate (P <br />< 0.05). Vertical bars represent 1 SE. <br />return to normal (except at 7 h) during the obser- <br />vations (Figure 3). <br />Small sample sizes precluded statistical analysis <br />of feeding and aggression data by hierarchical rank <br />of fish. We therefore present the data in a quali- <br />tative context. Dominant hatchery fish were gen- <br />erally feeding normally by 2 h posttreatment, <br />whereas aggression was low for the first 3 h post- <br />treatment and highly erratic thereafter (Figure 4). <br />Feeding rate in intermediate hatchery fish showed <br />no appreciable changes, although aggression rates <br />were generally lower than the pretreatment rate <br />during much of the observation period. Subordi- <br />nate hatchery fish showed no real changes in either <br />feeding or aggression. Feeding rate of dominant <br />wild fish was appreciably lower only during the <br />first hour after treatment, although the fish did <br />maintain a slightly lower rate of feeding until 24 <br />h posttreatment (Figure 4). Intermediate wild fish <br />did not return to normal feeding rates until the <br />second day, whereas subordinates showed no ap- <br />preciable changes in feeding rate except during the <br />first hour after treatment. After electroshocking <br />and marking ended, rates of aggression generally <br />remained low for wild dominant and intermediate <br />fish throughout the observation period. <br />Physiological Experiments <br />Electroshock plus marking.-Because there were <br />no differences in overall mean levels of cortisol <br />between trials with fish that were shocked once, <br />or shocked and marked, we combined all data. <br />Mean concentrations of plasma cortisol of shocked <br />and marked fish increased immediately after <br />treatments and reached a peak at 1 h (Figure 5). <br />They returned to control concentrations at 3 h,
