Various behaviors observed in family observation (a–p) after the vehicle (Veh) or muscimol microinfusions at the optimal level (C100). A total of 54 assays (Kotaro and Hanako, and Ken-ichi and Hibari were observed simultaneously because they were littermates) were conducted using eight families. Each dot corresponds to the value from a single experiment. The means of each subject (diamonds) in each condition are connected by a line. The black horizontal lines show the mean values of each condition of all subjects. Asterisks denote statistical significance (GLMM, Veh; n = 33 observations of 15 subjects, C100; n = 27 observations of 15 subjects, ***p < 0.001, *p < 0.05, †p < 0.1). Among behaviors listed in Table 2, marking and object play are omitted because of low occurrence.
