Trials to criterion and errors committed in the manual and automated version of the task in Experiment 1. (a) Mean number (± SEM) of trials necessary to complete each stage of the manual ASST (CD1: n = 9; C57: n = 9). (b) Mean number (± SEM) of trials necessary to complete each stage of the automated ASST (CD1: n = 6; C57: n = 6). (c) Mean number (± SEM) of errors committed to complete each stage of the manual ASST (CD1: n = 9; C57: n = 9). (d) Mean number (± SEM) of errors committed to complete each stage of the automated ASST (CD1: n = 6; C57: n = 6). £P ≤ 0.05 compared to C57 mice in post-hoc test. For data regarding the first stage of the task, which required only a simple discrimination on one stimulus dimension, see Supplementary material, paragraph 2.1.1.
