Social conflict models: can they inform us about human psychopathology?
TL;DR: This review briefly examines a variety of animal models of social conflict to assess whether they are useful for advancing the understanding of how experience can shape brain and behavior and for translating this information so that they have the potential to improve the quality of life of individuals with mental illness and behavioral disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conditioned defeat in male and female Syrian hamsters.

TL;DR: In male hamsters conditioned defeat is a profound, persistent behavioral change characterized by a total absence of territorial aggression and by the frequent display of submissive and defensive behaviors, which is similar to that seen in males.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute and repeated exposure to social conflict in male golden hamsters: increases in plasma POMC-peptides and cortisol and decreases in plasma testosterone.
TL;DR: The purpose of the present study was to characterize the hormonal response of dominant and submissive male hamsters to acute and repeated exposure to social conflict and concludes that hamsters are a useful species with which to study the neuroendocrine correlates of social behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short-day increases in aggression are inversely related to circulating testosterone concentrations in male Siberian hamsters (Phodopus sungorus).
TL;DR: The results confirm previous findings of increased aggression in short-day-housed hamsters and suggest that short- day-induced increases in aggression are inversely related to gonadal steroid hormones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuropeptide Y microinjected into the suprachiasmatic region phase shifts circadian rhythms in constant darkness
Kim L. Huhman,H.E. Albers +1 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that NPY produces phase shifts by some mechanism other than by inducing wheel running or by inhibiting the response of SCN neurons to light and supports a role for NPY in nonphotic shifting of the circadian clock.
