title: Chemosignals and activity of wild stock house mice, with a note on the use of running wheels to assess activity in rodents.
abstract: Two control tests and an experimental test were used to explore the effects of urinary chemosignals on activity in house mice (Mus domesticus). Control tests revealed that Using running wheels for measurement periods of up to a week, we tested whether any of eight urinary odours or water (control) influenced activity in male and female mice that were prepubertal, pubertal, or adult.
