The tonic immobility (TI) response and social reinstatement (SR) behaviour (as assessed in a treadmill test) were measured in 1, 2, 4, 6 and 10 week old Japanese quail of lines selected for long (LTI) and short (STI) duration of TI weighted for independence from SR behaviour or high (HSR) and low (LSR) levels of SR behaviour weighted for independence from durations of TI. Irrespective of age, LTI line birds had the longest and STI line birds the shortest duration of TI. The duration of TI did not differ between the HSR and LSR lines. Levels of SR behaviour were always higher in HSR line birds than in birds of the LSR line. SR behaviour did differ significantly between the LTI and STI lines and was shown at levels intermediate between those of the HSR and LSR lines although pairwise comparisons of line differences were not necessarily significant. The age and sex of the birds did not influence the duration of TI but levels of SR behaviour were lower at 2 and 4 weeks than at other ages and males showed more SR behaviour than females.
对为长（LTI）和短（STI）强直静止持续时间而选择的品系（强直静止持续时间与社会恢复行为无关）或为高（HSR）和低（LSR）社会恢复水平而选择的品系（社会恢复水平与强直静止持续时间无关）的1周龄、2周龄、4周龄、6周龄和10周龄日本鹌鹑，测量其强直静止（TI）反应和社会恢复（SR）行为（在跑步机测试中评估）。无论年龄如何，LTI品系的鹌鹑强直静止持续时间最长，STI品系的鹌鹑最短。HSR和LSR品系之间的强直静止持续时间没有差异。HSR品系鹌鹑的社会恢复行为水平总是高于LSR品系的鹌鹑。LTI和STI品系之间的社会恢复行为确实存在显著差异，且表现出的水平介于HSR和LSR品系之间，尽管品系差异的两两比较不一定显著。鸟类的年龄和性别不影响强直静止的持续时间，但社会恢复行为水平在2周龄和4周龄时低于其他年龄，且雄性比雌性表现出更多的社会恢复行为。
