Increased frequency of short-duration holds when rats hunt without whiskers. (A) The frequency distribution of hold durations <20 s for the three experimental conditions. A cumulative representation of the relative frequency of hold durations <20 s (inset). (B) Mean hold duration of values from 1 to 20 s for the three experimental conditions. Data (n=7) are expressed as mean±SEM; one-way ANOVA test for differences between experimental conditions: F=8.78; df=2.12; P=0.0045. Vib, intact whiskers; VibX, whiskers removed; VibR, whiskers re-grown.
