Table 4.

Dispersal distance (the pool where the fish was found (pools 1–5) at the termination of the first dispersal trial) in relation to personality traits, sex, body size and body mass. Mixed generalized linear model with a cumulative logit link and a multinomial error with the experimental population as a random effect. Simplification of the model was made using backward elimination of the non-significant terms.
