Thigmotaxis and the effects of modafinil on behaviour. Modafinil effects on (a) median speed, (b) maximum speed, (c) minimal path complexity, (d) activity coefficient and thigmotaxis measures (e) TTO and (f) TDO. The two groups affected by 20 mg/l and 2 mg/l modafinil are plotted in dark red and purple respectively, the control group in 0.1% DMSO in blue and wild type animals in light teal. (g) Distribution of behavioural modes for the groups. (h) Polar scatterplots of filtered speed values vs turn values the different groups. (N(20 mg/l) = 28, N(20 mg/l) = 27, N(DMSO) = 48, N(WT) = 101; number of points per polar plot is 100,000).
