This method can evaluate the level of tameness in each mouse, and the data will be highly useful for further studies of tameness such as genetic mapping of genes related to tameness. The main advantage of this technique is that it can evaluate two

Tameness in animals includes a reduction of avoidance responses to humans (passive tameness) and an increase in active approaches to humans (active tameness). Here, we describe detailed protocols for three behavioral tests (active tameness, passive tameness, and stay-on-hand tests) to separately measure the active and passive tameness of mice.
