  1. Multiple linear regression modelling the importance of contest experience × time-decay treatments on pre-contest hormones, controlling for the corresponding pre-experience hormone levels and strain type (N = 270, df: numerator degree of freedom, *: P ≤ 0.05, Exp: Experience, Time: Time-decay).
