“Characteristics” columns report the sex (Sex), age in months (Age [months]), and weight in grams (W [g]) of each animal at the start of experiment. Initial training columns report the number of sessions required for the shaping stages habituation (Habituation), mouthpiece-reward association (Mouthpiece association) and “touch-to-drink” (Touch-to-drink). Columns: Trials, Sessions and Session with 0 trials report the statistics for the corresponding panel in Fig. 1 regarding the total number of trials (“Trials (across all tasks)”) and the total number of sessions collected for each animal (“Sessions (across all tasks)”). The column “Sessions with 0 trials” summarizes the amount of sessions without interactions. The Initial Training.
