Table 1.

Model results examining (a) the effect of predator cue exposure, population and sex on the relative proportion of snails displaying ‘risky’ behaviour during trial 1, (b) the effect of predator cue exposure and population on feeding rate (total number of mussels eaten over the course of the trial) during trial 1, (c) the effect of predator cue exposure, population and sex on growth (change in length) during trial 1, and (d) the effect of predator cue exposure, population and sex on size (length) prior to the start of trial 2.
