Some Effects of Conditioning on Social Dominance and Subordination in Inbred Strains of Mice

D DOMINANCE-SUBORDINATION patterns of behavior, such as the so-called "peck-orders" in birds, have been demonstrated for many different groups of vertebrates ranging from fish to man. Interest in the subject now centers mainly on inquiries concerning the extent to which such social organizations exist in nature and upon an analysis of the factors which underlie and control their establishment and maintenance.
