Note. Resting is calculated in minutes; other behaviours are calculated in episodes. Data represent the mean ± SEM of six animals.

*

P < .05, for inter‐group comparison, significantly different from Vehicle + Motion group.

#

P < .05, significantly different, referring to intra‐group comparison; two‐way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni tests.
