The ethologically relevant models include the resident intruder and social hierarchy paradigms (Mitchell and Red-fern, 2005). These models are relatively recent, and have the relative advantage of relying on more naturalistic stressor, compared to shock or sw im. Also, they respond to chronic, but not acute antidepressant drug administration. 

The operation of what have been called instincts, both in animals and man himself, may now be understood in a new way. Although the capacity and characteristics of memory in animals are generally agreed to be very limited compared with man, the use of data implanted by experience, as well as the genetically-expressed data of the collective experience of a species, not as long-term memory in LMA, but as data for the operation of HRS, seems a promising new approach in ethology, chapter 6 will explore some of this territory.
