In adults, administration of a dopamine receptor antagonist reduced spontaneous motor activity level by 41% [36].
In some previous twin studies where parent report has been used to assess infant motor activity level, reporting bias has been evident [46]; [46].
Confidence in the results is increased by the large differences in estimates of heritability and shared environment between objectively measured activity and enjoyment of activity or fidgetiness, and the fact that genetic effects on objectively measured infant motor activity level have been detected in smaller samples than in the current study [14]; [14].
We detected no differences in the number of entries into any of the zones, indicating a lack of alteration in general motor activity level (data not shown) (Braun et al., 2011).

Motor activity levels, estimated by the total number of finger flexions performed during training, were matched between the two training groups.
A/J is also known to have lower motor activity levels [ 23] and be more resistant to developing epilepsy [ 24] than C57BL/6J.
In depressed patients, lower motor activity levels were associated with clinical ratings of retardation (r = 0.717, P < 0.05) and depression severity (r = 0.66, P < 0.05) [ 25].
To assay locomotion defects directly, we first assayed daily motor activity levels in individual animals using the Drosophila Activity Monitoring (DAM) system, which measures movement disruption of an infrared beam (Chiu et al., 2010).
In the present study we assessed the effects of developmental exposure to one of the most persistent PBDE congeners (PBDE-99) on juvenile basal motor activity levels and adult male reproductive health.
In the current study, the authors sought to investigate whether these associations could be detected in early infancy using the Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale (NBAS) to assess infants' visual and auditory stimuli responses, motor tone and motor activity levels, and ability to regulate crying, alert, and sleep states.
From an ecological view, the key role of body size in escaping predation appears important in both tadpoles (see Background) and newt larvae (this study; see also [ 46]) despite their disparate foraging strategies, grazing and ambush predation, and accordingly motor activity levels.
