Table 1 Choice bias, effect of starting location and effect of the previous choice. Shown are the regression coefficients for choice bias, start box location and the previous choice of the logistic regression model. All animals showed significant choice bias (preferential choice of the left or right target), five animals showed significant effect of the starting location and six animals showed significant effect of the previous choice
