“…107,108 Similarly, adult California mice that were reared in PD conditions show reduced sociability and increased avoidance and vigilance to a same-sex conspecific. 109 In contrast, PD-reared prairie voles show no changes in social recognition as adults and exhibit higher levels of social affiliation in a social approach test. 110 Though this literature focusses on deprivation models, there is evidence that variation in parental behavior and offspring stimulation within biparental rearing conditions shapes social behavior.…”

Early life experiences can have an enduring impact on the brain and behavior, with implications for stress reactivity, cognition, and social behavior. In particular, the neural systems that contribute to the expression of social behavior are altered by early life social environments. However, paradigms that have been used to alter the social environment during development have typically focused on exposure to stress, adversity, and deprivation of species‐typical social stimulation. Here, we explore whether complex social environments can shape the development of complex social behavior. We describe lab‐based paradigms for studying early life social complexity in rodents that are generally focused on enriching the social and sensory experiences of the neonatal and juvenile periods of development. The impact of these experiences on social behavior and neuroplasticity is highlighted. Finally, we discuss the degree to which our current approaches for studying social behavior outcomes give insight into “complex” social behavior and how social complexity can be better integrated into lab‐based methodologies.
