title: Data from: Appetitive olfactory learning suffers in ants when octopamine or dopamine receptors are blocked

description: <b>dataset-feeding-learning.csv </b>Dataset (csv format) for the learning trials of the feeding treatment. The dataset contains columns with the treatment (untreated, epinastine treated (Epi), flupentixol treated (Flup); numbers indicate the time between treatments and learning trials in hours), the ID of the original colony the ant belonged to, the individual ID of the ant, the hydrocarbon mixture that served as conditioned stimulus (HC), the learning trial (1-6 for each ant), and the time in seconds until the ant begun to feed on the sucrose solution.<br><b>dataset-feeding-retention.csv </b>Dataset (csv format) for the retention tests of the feeding treatment. The dataset contains columns with the treatment (untreated, epinastine treated (Epi), flupentixol treated (Flup); numbers indicate the time between treatments and learning trials in hours), the ID of the original colony the ant belonged to, the individual ID of the ant, the hydrocarbon mixture that served as conditioned stimulus (HC), information on whether the retention test happened directly after the learning trials (Day=1) or on the following day (Day=2), the time in seconds spent on the conditioned stimulus (TimeCS) and the other stimulus (NS), and the preference index (PI) calculated from these times.<br><b>dataset-application-learning.csv </b>Dataset (csv format) for the learning trials of the topical application treatment. The dataset contains columns with the treatment (dmf control, epinastine 100mM (epi100), or flupentixol (flup)), the ID of the original colony the ant belonged to, the individual ID of the ant (Ant), the hydrocarbon mixture that served as conditioned stimulus (HC), the learning trial (1-6 for each ant), and the time in seconds until the ant begun to feed on the sucrose solution.<br><b>dataset-application-retention.csv</b> Dataset (csv format) for the retention tests of the topical application treatment. The dataset contains columns with the treatment (dmf control, epinastine in low (epi20) or high dose (epi100), or flupentixol (flup)), the ID of the original colony the ant belonged to, the individual ID of the ant, the hydrocarbon mixture that served as conditioned stimulus (HC), information on whether the retention test happened directly after the learning trials (Day=1) or on the following day (Day=2), the number of frames in which the ant was in the quadrant with the conditioned stimulus (FreqCS) and the other stimulus (FreqNS), and the preference index (PI).<br><b>dataset-application-distance.csv</b> Dataset (csv format) for the walking speed of ants during the retention tests of the topical application treatment. The dataset contains columns with the treatment (dmf control, epinastine in low (epi20) or high dose (epi100), or flupentixol (flup)), the ID of the original colony the ant belonged to, the individual ID of the ant, information on whether the retention test happened directly after the learning trials (Day=1) or on the following day (Day=2), and the speed of the ants in mm per second (Speedmm).
