[Effects of pre-exposure to an experimental chamber on memory trace retrieval in aggressive and submissive mice during extinction of conditioning].
Mice with a submissive stereotype of behaviour developed a fast habituation to novelty of environment. A subsequent training revealed a deficit of passive avoidance learning and prolongation of the memory trace extinction. Aggressive mice are characterised by a delay of the habituation and absence of any significant changes in the memory trace retrieval. The findings suggest that responses to environmental novelty and use of its estimation in learning and retention of memory traces are essentially predetermined by the basic strategy of behaviour.
