Condition The experimental condition / phenotype studied according to the Experimental Factor Ontology
Social interaction measurement Social interaction measurement,social interaction measurement
Group 0 name Corresponds to the control (unexposed) group for case-control studies
T2 single
Group 1 name Corresponds to the case (exposed) group for case-control studies
Combination of T3 social, T4 social and T5RSL
Group 1 definition Diagnostic criteria applied to define the specific condition / phenotype represented in the case (exposed) group
At the 3-month mark, the Protected Pairwise Social Living phase was implemented and lasted for 6 months, during which T3Social and T4Social data were collected. At the 9-month mark, the Return to Single Living phase was implemented, wherein the macaques were returned to their previous single housing conditions (as in Single Living). The final data collection session, referred to as T5RSL, took place 6 months into this phase.
