Most data were estimated from average group values of available test parameters in tables or graphs. Difference between strains were reported from each selected research paper when available, otherwise we used tables and figures and estimated a difference between two group based on the mean and standard error to the mean (s.e.m.). A difference between strains was considered to be present when we observed no overlap between mean and between s.e.m. of a group pair. Mathiasen et al. 2008 T3 and T4, refers to table 3 and table 4, respectively.

OA, open arms; TT, total crossings; DL, dark to lit; LD, Lit to dark; LIT, lit compartment; C, central area of the open field; lt, latency; x, crossings; t, time; %x, percent entries; %t, percent time; Inferior (<), superior (>) signs and nonsignificant (ns) refer to difference obtained by a mouse strain in column 1 compared to a mouse strain in column 2 of the same row.
