Table 1. Generalized linear mixed models for (a) the binary trainability response variable and (b) the learning level variable in the acute experiment (experiment 1) using all exposed bees that took part in the task (n = 142 bees).

Parameter estimates are calculated with reference to the control group. Colony and week of PER testing were included as random effects. Significant p values (p < 0.05) are highlighted in bold.
