Trout Escape when they are not observed Figure 3. - Social learning precedes efficient escape. Positive linear regression between the frequency of unobserved (larger aggressor is incapable of viewing the test fish and the escape route) escapes and days of social interaction experience (black dots, solid regression line; r2 = 0.814, P < 0.005). Negative curvilinear regression between the frequency of observed escapes (by larger patrolling aggressor) and number of days of experience (each with a novel aggressor) of social interaction (white triangles, dashed regression line; r2 = 0.64, P < 0.03).
