Dataset of reaching behavior for reward in social situations in mice.

ABSTRACT: The data presented in this article is from a paper entitled "An experimental task to examine the mirror neuron system in mice: Laboratory mice understand the movement intentions of other mice based on their own experience" (Ukezono and Takano, 2021). This article contains individual data on reaching behavior for reward in social situations in mice. In the reaching room, the mice first learned how to acquire food by reaching their limbs.
