[Social effects of the behavior of male and female mice in open field]. 1977

A Guillot

Canonical discriminant analysis is used to differentiate behaviors, in male and female mice, either isolated, either grouped by two, or grouped by five, and placed into two different open-fields, one of 1 m X 1 m and one of 2.5 m X 2.5 m. Social effects are experimentally demonstrated. In addition the evidenced complexity of the behavior of mice in an openfield cannot be merely reduced to a decrease or increase of an emotional or of an exploratory behavior, as it has been previously stated.
