Adolescent and adult mice use both incremental reinforcement learning and short term memory when learning concurrent stimulus-action associations

Female regression coefficients for regression #3 across development in set size = 2 and set size = 4.
The influence of age on regression coefficients from our winning regression, regression #3, for both set size = 2 and set size = 4 are formatted in the same way as males in Fig 4. All statistics are done identically and are reported in the text. There was a slight decrease in the regression coefficient weight of intercept for set size = 2 (A), but not set size = 4 (F). Outside of this, there were no significant changes across development in set size = 4, but there was a significant change in reward-repeat (p < 0.0001) and noreward-repeat (p < 0.0001) only in set size 2. These results are in contrast to significant changes seen across development in male mice in regression #3 that had some consistencies across set sizes (Fig 4).
