Dopamine-mediated behavioral alterations following exposure to a social video in socially isolated mice during the developmental period.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Video exposure is known to affect brain function, yet its impact on neurodevelopmental processes remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate whether exposure to a video depicting social behavior induces behavioral and neurological changes in socially isolated mice. On Postnatal Day (PND) 21, male mice were separated from their dams and randomly assigned to three groups: socially grouped mice; socially isolated mice (ISO), where mice were housed without any social stimulation; and social video-exposed mice (SVE), where mice were exposed to a social video played on a tablet from PND21 to PND56 under socially isolated conditions. On PND56, all animals underwent behavioral tests. Compared to the socially grouped mice and ISO group, the SVE group showed an attenuated response to amphetamine treatment. In the social cognition test, the ISO group exhibited decreased affiliative behavior and increased offensive and defensive behavior. However, the SVE group showed a partial improvement in social cognition, including increased affiliative behaviors and decreased defensive behaviors, although no changes in offensive behaviors were observed. Furthermore, the SVE group exhibited elevated levels of tyrosine hydroxylase and dopamine transporter in key social cognition regions-namely the prefrontal cortex, retrosplenial cortex, and hippocampus. This neurochemical shift implies that socially isolated mice can acquire social behaviors through exposure to video-based social interactions. These effects may be related to the compensatory response of the dopamine system, which is implicated in various psychiatric disorders. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
