Abstract:		The behaviour was studied of male mice of CBA/Lac and C57BL/6j lines near transparent perforated partition in reaction to syngeneic partner which was in adjacent department of the common cage. The number of approaches to the partition and total time of staying near it during testing were used as behaviour parameters. Then the partition was removed and the success or defeat of each individual in agonistic collision and parameters of aggressive reaction of the winner male mouse were fixed. It turned out that future winners spent significantly more time near the partition than future losers. By the correlative analysis reliable interconnections were established between individuals activity near the partition (number of approaches or total time of staying) and intensity of aggression (number or total time of attacks) which reflects the level of the aggressive motivation. Variation is observed of individual correlating parameters depending on animals genotype and conditions of their keeping
