Behavioural experiments in the laboratory with stickleback fish - Fish learning data

Data are of speed and accuracy of decision making in stickleback fish of different personalities. A laboratory population of three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) were repeatedly tested in a T-maze. The work was carried out between March 2012 and February 2013 at The Structure and Motion Laboratory, Royal Veterinary College. The work was funded by a BBSRC studentship, NERC ( grant NE/H016600/2 Does diversity deliver? How variation in individual knowledge and behavioural traits impact on the performance of animal groups) and The Royal Society (RG 110401) All animal care and experimental procedures described here were approved as non-regulatory procedures by the Ethics and Welfare Committee of the Royal Veterinary College, London (URN 2011 1084).

本数据集收录了不同性格棘鱼的决策速度与准确性相关实验数据。实验所用的三刺棘鱼（Gasterosteus aculeatus）为实验室种群，该种群在T型迷宫中接受了重复测试。本实验于2012年3月至2013年2月间在伦敦皇家兽医学院结构与运动实验室完成。本研究由英国生物技术与生物科学研究委员会（BBSRC）奖学金、英国自然环境研究委员会（NERC，项目编号NE/H016600/2，课题为“多样性能否带来效益？个体认知与行为性状的变异如何影响动物群体的表现”）以及英国皇家学会（RG 110401）资助。本研究涉及的所有动物饲养与实验操作均经伦敦皇家兽医学院伦理与福利委员会批准为非监管类实验操作，审批编号为URN 2011 1084。
