Abstract
Three groups of male mice ( n = 6 per group) were tested in a study of the effects of repeated exposure to an intruder, dangled opponents, and isolation on territorial aggression (offense). Daily home-cage tests with intruders produced significantly more offensive behavior than either of the other procedures commonly used to induce this type of attack in mice.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
