Aggression, Social Pressure and Asymptote in Laboratory Mouse Populations
Freely growing populations of BALB/cJ, C57BR/cdJ and C57BL/6J mice were maintained until after asymptote in the presence of ad libitum food and water. If aggression were an index of social pressure then aggression at asymptote should be stable. After asymptote was reached aggression increased in two of the three strains. Therefore aggression as measured here does not index social pressure. BALB/cJ populations had more aggression and fewer mice at…
Social determinants of the onset of puberty in rodents∗
The age at which female mice attain puberty depends to a large extent on their prior experience with male stimuli. Females exposed to male odors mature more rapidly than those denied access to the smell of a male. Such an odor can be termed a priming pheromone because it sets in motion a chain of physiological events which, in this case, culminate in puberty. The demonstration that a social factor such as a pheromone can influence the rate of sex…
Behavioral Observations of an Infant Squirrel Monkey
The behavioral development and social relations of one infant squirrel monkey were observed in a small caged group of 5 animals. Description is based on 108 hr. of observation over the first 28 wk. of his life. During his first 12 days, the infant either rode on his mother's back or nursed. On the thirteenth day he began to leave her, becoming more independent during the next 5 wk. After 7 wk. he returned to his mother only to nurse or when frigh…
