Abstract

Adolescence is one of the most critical period of development and has a great importance to the health of an adult life. Stressors or traumatic events during this period are associated with changes in the development and plasticity of the neuroendocrine system predisposing the individual to psychiatric disorders as related to anxiety or depression.

Therefore, this study aims to assess the impacts in adulthood of unpredictable stress during adolescence on behavioral tests
