Results from three models showing the effect of stimulus condition on (1) Total USV rate for 5 minutes after the stimulus presentation, (2) Harmonic USV rate for 5 minutes after the stimulus presentation and (3) Total USV rate for 15 minutes after the stimulus presentation. Condition indicates the type of stimulus presented whereas time represents before or after the presentation of the stimulus. Stimulus position indicates which side of the cage the stimulus was presented on. Bolded values indicate statistical significance.
