Introduction: Sex differencees in agression

Fighting in female mice in lines selected for laterality
Male and female mice from the Collins HI and LO laterality strains were isolated for 3–5 days. Thereafter on Day 1 each was given the Intruder Test followed by a Training Test; the latter was repeated 1 week later. All males of 36 days or older fought vigorously, but without line differences. Females of the HI strain showed higher numbers of fighters and greater intensity of fighting than those of the LO strain, and by the second Training Test th…
Application of Biological Concepts and Techniques to Human Political Problems: An Introduction
ble to the study of human political organizations as special forms of living systems. The second is that the concepts developed from the study of living systems should also be applicable to political systems. In this introductory paper, I first list some of the basic concepts and techniques developed by the biological sciences, indicate how these might be used to further our knowledge of political science, and finally conclude that the most impor…

Agonistic Behavior: Function and Dysfunction in Social Conflict
This paper outlines the basic principles arising from a polysystemic theory of agonistic behavior in nonhuman animals and the practical implications of these principles to the problem of the control of undesirable and injurious forms of human violence. A major conclusion is that one of the most effective methods of establishing and maintaining habits of constructive and peaceful behavior is employment in useful and rewarding occupations

Violence and the disaggregated society
This paper reviews the evidence that social disaggregation is a major cause of destructive violence in non-human animal societies. The multifactorial theory of agonistic behavior is modified into a polysystemic theory which relates factors on each level to each other in an integrated model. As a result, it is suggested that disaggregation of systems on any level may lead to maladaptive violence. On theoretical grounds it is concluded that disaggr…
Biology and human aggression
Book reviewed in this article: Agonistic behavior is defined as a system of related behavior patterns having the common function of adaptation to situations of conflict between members of the same species. It is highly probable that biological bases for this kind of behavior do exist for the various species. It is equally probable, however, that because of man's unique genetic composition no direct analogies from any other species to man are just…
Genetics and the development of social behavior in mammals
This paper summarizes recent work on the development of social behavior in animals, together with some evaluation of the results in relation to human problems. Social development results in the formation of social relationships, and the time when the first social attachments are formed is a critical period in determining the nature of these and future relationships. Heredity produces important differences in development both within and between sp…

Critical Periods in the Development of Social Behavior in Puppies
The existence of a critical period for the establishment of primary social relationships is a well-established phenomenon in social animals. This paper has dealt with the physical and hereditary basis of the critical period in the dog. Normal social development in the puppy can be divided into several periods based on changes in social relationships. Several of these may be critical, but the most important is that of primary socialization, beginn…

Nonadaptive behavior resulting from a series of defeats in fighting mice
Genetics as a tool in experimental psychological research
In numerous cases authors arrive at different conclusions in doing similar experiments. The difference can only be explained by the assumption of strain differences in the animals. The article is designed to show how present-day knowledge of heredity may be useful in the study of behavior. (1) Present trends in the science of genetics, (2) genetic variability and behavior variability, and (3) the control of genetic variability are discussed. The …
