Male rats were exposed to four different stress conditions, varying in duration and intensity, during separate periods and their copulatory behaviour was studied. The number of mounts and time spent in other sexual behaviours were reduced with intensity of stressor being primarily responsible rather than prolongation of duration of a less severe stress condition.
