Interviews occurred at 3 months in order to allow for the assessment of whether any post-performance changes were maintained over the short to medium term and to allow time for the detection of any behavioural change.
We propose a list of criteria with which to evaluate the behavioural tests and discuss each test with respect to these criteria as well as any behavioural, physiological or pharmacological validation.
In contrast to B-rafΔ9b/Δ9b animals, B-rafΔ8b/Δ8b mice did not show any behavioural deficits.
Neither ipsilateral STR volume, nor ipsilateral VM volume, were significant predictors of behavioural outcome for any behavioural test performed.
