Moreover, the preferential distribution of COS7 cells to the areas with low concentration of PLL is independent of the fluorophore used, as a similar preference was observed when FITC was replaced with DyLight549-conjugated PLL [ 17].
The SF-6D is used as a generic preference-based measure assessing health across six dimensions (physical functioning, role limitations, social functioning, pain, mental health, and validity) with 3 5 response options.
These drugs are never used as a first choice preference.
This percentage was used as a measure of preference (or avoidance).
In this literature, while responder behavior is widely used as a proxy for fairness preference, it is noted that proposer behavior confounds fairness preference and strategic consideration.
Each trial lasted 2 min. Duration of nose-poking into the hole was used as a measure of odor preference.
Each trial lasted 2 min [2], [11] and duration (seconds) of nose poking into the hole was used as a measure of odor preference [2], [11], [33].
The number of entries and the duration of exploration time in the zones were used as a measure of odor preference in a similar fashion to previously described methods [14], [29].
Although different variations of VAS have been frequently used as a simple method of preference measurement, recently some concerns regarding their validity have been raised [ 13- 15].
The duration of exploration of each goal box (when the mouse is sniffing the grid delimiting the goal box) was measured, and the percentage of time the mouse took to explore the congener was used as an index of social preference (recognition preference).
