Isolation housing increased the time spent engaged in aggressive behaviour across the four-day SxAT paradigm. Isolated rats (ISM, n = 10) exhibited significantly longer (a) offensive grooming and (b) threat behaviour duration compared to group-housed rats (GHSM, n = 10). For threat duration, models indicated a significant day 3 effect and significant interactions between housing condition and day 3. Box plots represent the median and interquartile range, with whiskers for values 1.5x the interquartile range and notches for the 95% confidence interval. **p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001
