管理因素的影响需要更多的知识，以调查个体发育的异常行为在马厩的马。一项对赛马（平地）训练员的邮政调查产生了关于22码和管理因素的信息。用Logistic回归分析这些因素与异常行为患病率的关系。与在马厩中度过的时间相关的管理因素与刻板行为的关联最强。马发生异常行为的风险增加：1）当饲料量低于6.8 kg/天时，2）当使用除稻草以外的垫料类型时，3）当院子里的马总数少于75匹时，4）与减少相邻马之间接触的箱子设计相关，5）当使用干草而不是其他类型的饲料时。
A greater knowledge of the effect of management factors is required to investigate the ontogeny of abnormal behaviour in the stabled horse. A postal survey of racehorse (flat) trainers yielded information about 22 yard and management factors. The relationship of the factors to the prevalence of abnormal behaviour was analysed by logistic regression. Management factors related to the time spent in the stable showed the strongest associations with stereotypic behaviour. The risk of horses performing abnormal behaviour increased: 1) as the amount of forage fell below 6.8 kg/day, 2) when bedding types other than straw were used, 3) when the total number of horses on the yard was fewer than 75, 4) in association with box designs that minimised contact between neighbouring horses, 5) when hay, rather than other types of forage, was used.
