Table 1. Comparisons for duration and frequency of Gazing at owner, duration of Gazing at food, the number of Gaze alternation using GEE models and Wald statistics (W).

Significant differences are in bold. After the FDR adjustment, only the p-values shown in italics remain statistically significant.
