beedat

Description

Data set containing choices made by bees during experiments used to evaluate whether they could learn to select for odd or even numbers and transfer that learning to new situations. Data are from Howard et al. (2022)

Usage

beedat

Format

A data frame with 1040 rows and 6 variables:

Bee

integer ID of the individual bee

Trial

integer Choice number ranging from 1-20 for each test

Choice

integer Individual choices made by each bee. Choice = 1 if a correct choice was made and 0 otherwise.

Test

integer The learning test for even trained bees is marked as ‘1’, the learning test for odd trained bees is marked as ‘2’, the transfer test for even trained bees is marked as ‘3’, and the transfer test for odd trained bees is marked ‘4’.

Ieven

double Indicator variable equal to 1 for even trained bees and 0 for odd trained bees

Itransfer

double Indicator variable equal to 1 if the observation was from a learning test and 0 for a transfer test
