在京都大学阿舒实验林，通过每月一次的诱捕和在人工饲养点直接观察社会行为，研究了社会行为在美姬鼠种群调节中的作用。1974年和1975年分别于5 ~ 10月进行了调查，1975年6月、8月和10月进行了直接观察。最低存活率在非繁殖季节较高，繁殖季节较低。它与两性中性活跃成年人的数量呈负相关，女性的家庭范围往往是相互排斥的，女性居民阻止女性移民定居。另一方面，男性的家庭范围重叠很大，男性有一个直接的社会等级。从属男性往往比主导男性更经常消失，但男性居民并没有阻碍男性移民的定居。雄性通过驱逐从属雄性来调节数量，而雌性则通过间隔行为来调节数量。
The role of social behavior on the population regulation of the Japanese wood mouse,Apodemus speciosus, was studied in the Ashu Experimental Forest of Kyoto University by monthly trapping and direct observation on the social behavior at the artificial feeding site. The census was carried out from May to October in 1974 and 1975, and the direct observation in June, August and October, 1975.In the study area, the Japanese wood mouse has two breeding seasons in a year: in spring and in autumn. Minimum survival rate was high in the non-breeding season and low in the breeding season. It was negatively correlated to the number of sexually active adults in both sexes.Home ranges of females tended to be mutually exclusive, and female residents prevented the settlement of female immigrants. On the other hand, home ranges of males overlapped largely and males had a straight social hierarchy. Subordinate males tended to disappear more often than dominant males did, but male residents did not hinder the settlement of male immigrants. Males may regulate their number by driving out the subordinate males, while females by spacing behavior.
