  "summary": "Behavioral test batteries are increasingly used to characterize multiple functional domains in zebrafish, yet the potential impact of test sequence on behavioral outcomes remains poorly defined. Here, we systematically evaluated whether test order influences behavioral responses in a three-assay battery comprising the novel tank test (NTT), mirror-induced aggression (MIA), and social preference…",
