Methods (abbreviated)

Res questions

1. Does response to a novel environment differ between the two rearing techniques?

• [this needs to be much more specific]

Dependent variables:

• % movement
• % behavior
• out of view

Independent variables:

• rearing (primary)
• age
• location
• pen size
• weather
• recent activity

From RIG meeting:

Analysis notes from 17 March

• look at age vs each variable
• look at pen size vs each variable
• use repeated measures if looking at entire series of change (can only use animals that make it all the way through)
• look at response to each pen as fxn of treatment (rearing)

3-way ANOVA repeated

Dep = behavior

Main effects = location (df = 3), rearing (df = 1)

interaction between location rearing

other variables = covariates and not in interaction term

need more birds than CR/locations or we’re over-parameterizing
