Extended Data Fig. 1: Behaviour metrics computed over single mice.
From: A synaptic threshold mechanism for computing escape decisions
a–c, Summary plots for escape behaviour metrics calculated for each mouse individually and averaged. Plots on the left were obtained with data from all trials, and in the plots on the right, trials for each contrast were split in half and the behaviour metrics calculated for each half. There is a significant dependency on contrast for all metrics (reaction time, a: P = 3.5 × 10−8; escape probability, b: P = 2.1 × 10−7; escape vigour, c: P = 1.6 × 10−6, repeated measures ANOVA), and no significant difference between the metrics calculated using the first and second half of the trials (P > 0.4 for a main effect of trial group in all comparisons, two-way repeated measures ANOVA), indicating that behavioural performance was stable across repeated presentations of the stimulus. Error bars and shaded areas are s.e.m. d, Escape probability after the first (as shown in Fig. 1e, calculated by pooling all data) and fifth spot, during the presentation of five consecutive expanding spots.
