Abstract：
:The effect of continuous exposure to a relatively strong magnetic field for about 3-4 weeks were evaluated on social (inter-male) aggression in isolated males and on maternal attack by lactating female mice. This study revealed that exposure to intense fields produced a significant reduction in social and maternal aggression towards anosmic (passive) standard opponent intruders. The detailed ethologically-assessed results indicate that such exposure produces a significant decline in most behavioural categories recorded throughout this study in isolated male and lactating female mice. Defensive behaviour, however, seemed enhanced in lactating mice. These results may be explained in terms of the magnetic fields interfering with the function of the central nervous system or the physiological substrates which control such types of behaviour.
