From: Differential patch-leaving behavior during probabilistic foraging in humans and gerbils

Fig. 2

a Dot plot shows the number of reward captures as a function of patch quality for humans (dark red) and gerbils (orange). Small dots indicate individual subjects’ values and green diamonds are the sample mean. b Residence times for humans (dark red) and gerbils (orange) as a function of patch quality. ce Plots show the relationship between the total number of rewards obtained at the end of foraging sessions and residence times per patch. In both the PC-lab (c) and the fMRI-lab (d), humans’ residence times were negatively correlated with total earnings. The association was reversed in gerbils (e) but was not statistically significant.
