The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of preweaning exposure to alcohol upon adult learning ability and taste preferences. Two groups of rats, one whose mothers drank only water and one whose mothers drank only wine, were tested as adults for their ability to form learning sets and for their preference between water and wine. Animals whose mothers drank wine performed below the level of control animals with regard to learning set formation and consistently drank more wine than the controls.
