Physiological and Ethological Effects of Fluoxetine, A Study Using Ants as Biological Models
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Using ants as biological models, we showed that fluoxetine (the active substance of the most consumed antidepressants) largely affects the individual’s physiology and behavior. It increases sinuosity of movement, decreases precision of reaction and response to pheromones, decreases food consumption and brood caring, and induces aggressiveness towards nestmates while decreasing that towards aliens. Under fluoxetine consumption, ants lost their olfaction and their learning ability, having also lower cognitive ability. There is no habituation to, and no dependence on, fluoxetine consumption, which effects vanish in two or two and a half days. Attention should be paid whenever that drug is used, not only for the humans but also for all the organisms living on field and depending on natural water. A future work will examine antidepressants free of fluoxetine, hoping that they could advantageously replace those containing that harmful substance.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
