| Popis | Agonistic behavior, occurring during intraspecific conflicts, refers to the spectrum of conflict-related behavior including not only aggressive behavior, but also the elements indicative of escape, defence, submission and other behavioral elements. Using the model of agonistic behavior of singly-housed male mice on dyadic interactions with non-aggressive group-housed partners, we have learned that isolates might be divided into three categories: aggressive, timid and sociable individuals. For collection of behavioral data from videotaped 4-min agonistic interactions we are using the system The Observer 3.1 (Noldus Information Technology b.v., The Netherlands). Subsequently an add-on program, working under the Excel 97, was developed enabling statistical analysis of pharmacologically induced behavioral changes in three differential categories of mice classified according to their behavior exhibited in the control agonistic interactions. |
