Observer behaviour toward foot-shocked or fear-conditioned cagemate mice. a Schematic diagram of the experiment. b Outline of the behavioural paradigm. Graphs showing the proportion of time spent immobile during each 1-min period (c, d, g, h) and the total time spent immobile (e, f, i, h). Left panels (c, e, g, h): demonstrators. Right panels (d, f, h, j): observers. All data are presented as the mean ± SEM. Statistical significance is represented by asterisks: *p < 0.05. The p-values were calculated using two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) in c, d, g, and h and one-way ANOVA in e, f, i, and f. SEM standard error of the mean
