PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a substrate for cell behavior assessment, a container for cell behavior assessment, and a cell behavior assessment method, capable of appropriately assessing cell behavior on fine uneven patterns.SOLUTION: The substrate for cell behavior assessment for assessing cell behavior on a fine uneven pattern comprises a base having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, wherein on each of first to N-th (N is an integer of 2 or more.) assessment regions which are set on a part of the first surface of the base and which are arranged in parallel in given one direction in order, first to N-th uneven patterns are formed as fine uneven patterns, an M-th uneven pattern formed on an M-th (M is an integer of 1 or more to N-1 or less.) assessment region and an M+1-th uneven pattern formed on the M+1 assessment region have sizes within 100 to 500 nm, the sizes being different with each other in the degree capable of assessing cell behavior.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】微細凹凸パターン上における細胞の挙動を的確に評価可能な細胞挙動評価用基板、細胞挙動評価用容器及び細胞挙動評価方法を提供する。【解決手段】微細凹凸パターン上における細胞の挙動を評価するための細胞挙動評価用基板は、第１面及びそれに対向する第２面を有する基部を備え、基部の第１面の一部に設定された、所定の一方向に沿って順に並列する第１〜第Ｎ（Ｎは２以上の整数である。）評価領域のそれぞれに、微細凹凸パターンとしての第１〜第Ｎ凹凸パターンが形成され、第Ｍ（Ｍは１以上Ｎ−１以下の整数である。）評価領域に形成されている第Ｍ凹凸パターンと、第Ｍ＋１評価領域に形成されている第Ｍ＋１凹凸パターンとは、１００〜５００ｎｍの範囲内の、細胞の挙動を評価可能な程度に互いに異なる寸法を有する。【選択図】図１
