Table 1.
Results of GLMMs on response to increased task demands. Non-significant interactions were eliminated from the models. Non-significant terms are shown for information; their exclusion does not qualitatively change the results. Signs on t-values indicate direction of relationship (e.g. switching to extra-nest activity was less likely with increasing corpulence).
