Table 2 Three-way ANOVA results with factors sex (male and female), strain (fighter and wild-type) and treatment (conspecific, mirror and control) and interaction between the factors. For the aggression score, only two levels of the factor treatment (conspecific and mirror were included as aggressive behaviours were absent during control trials. Values for the F-statistic and partial eta-squared (ηp2) are reported. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
