When mice are introduced to a new, unoccupied space, they also show territorial behaviors and become aggressive themselves.
“What is important, when those mice are introduced to a new, unoccupied space, they also show territorial behaviors and become aggressive themselves.”
From Ecological validity of social interaction tests in rats and mice (2019) · cites this paper as [82]
After some adaptation period, laboratory mice kept in large, complex environment start to display territoriality and attack each other.
“Even more interestingly, after some adaptation period also laboratory mice kept in large, complex environment start to display territoriality and attack each other.76,82”
From Ecological validity of social interaction tests in rats and mice (2019) · cites this paper as [82]
Dominance relationships observed in the laboratory might be formed in an un-ecological manner, simply because subordinates have no possibility to emigrate from the group and establish their own territory.
“Thus dominance relationships observed in laboratory might be formed in un-ecological manner, simply because the”
From Ecological validity of social interaction tests in rats and mice (2019) · cites this paper as [82]
Social rank directly influences reproduction in mice at least in two ways: subordinate males can be chased away from females by dominants, and females are more permissive to copulate with dominants.
“Importantly, social rank directly influences reproduction at least in two ways: subordinate males can be chased away from the females by dominants 76,82,145 and the females are more permissive to copulate with the dominants.144”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
