Table 1.

General linear mixed models to analyse copepod behaviour in response to infection by parasites selected for or against host manipulation. Initial model for host manipulation: response approximately 1 + (1/population). Initial model for host activity: response approximately 1 + (1/population) + (1/copepod identity). Test statistics and p-values were obtained using likelihood ratio tests and are always for the comparison with the preceding (i.e. less complicated) model. n: host manipulation: 1231 copepods in 4 populations; host activity: 2462 observations on 1231 copepods in 4 populations. Significant p-values are highlighted in bold.
