Average (A) total distance traveled, (B) time spent in the perimeter and (C) number of entries in the center during 30 minutes of open-field testing across the various age points for social control group, and short-term and long-term developmental isolation groups. Mean ± S.E.M. are shown. n = 10–15 fish per treatment group. Each fish was allowed to swim singly and the x-y coordinates were recorded and used to calculate distances, time spent in perimeter, and center entries. Note that compared to social/control fish, long-term isolation led to hyperactivity in adulthood, and decreased anxiety-related behavior across development. However, short-term isolation (pfd 0–7) did not.
