Serves the increasing number of scientists engaged in the study of animal behaviorMakes another important contribution to the development of the fieldPresents theoretical ideas and research to those studying animal behavior and related fields

Suitable for scientists engaged in the study of animal behavior, this title contributes to the development of the field by presenting theoretical ideas and research to those studying animal behavior and to their colleagues in neighboring fields.

Aims to serve scientists engaged in the study of animal behavior, including psychologists, neuroscientists, biologists, ethologists, pharmacologists, endocrinologists, ecologists, and geneticists. This work presents reviews of research programs with theoretical syntheses, reformulation of persistent problems and/or highlighting research concepts.

Focuses on theories and research developments with respect to behavioral ecology, evolutionary biology, and comparative psychology. This volume serves scientists who are engaged in the study of animal behavior by presenting their theoretical ideas and research to their colleagues and to those in neighboring fields.

This title focuses on theories and research developments with respect to behavioural ecology, evolutionary biology, and comparative psychology, it seeks to foster co-operation and communication in these diverse fields.

Focuses on various theories and research developments with respect to behavioral ecology, evolutionary biology, and comparative psychology.

Focusing on theories and research developments with respect to behavioural ecology, evolutionary biology and comparative psychology, these volumes serve to foster co-operation and communication in these fields.

Focuses on research on the lower vertebrates with respect to the functional significance of different breeding strategies, the level at which natural selection acts, methods of teasing apart the genetic control of behaviour and the assumptions underlying models of territoriality.

Serves scientists engaged in the study of animal behavior. This volume includes topics such as: mechanisms and evolution of arthropod and anuran communal sexual displays, a functional analysis of feeding, the sexual behavior and breeding system of tufted capuchin monkeys, acoustic communication in noise, ethics and behavioral biology, and more.

Focusing on new theories and research developments with respect to behavioural ecology, evolutionary biology, and comparative psychology, the volumes in this series aim to foster cooperation and communication in these diverse fields.

The aim of "Advances in the Study of Behavior" remains as it has been since the series began: to serve the increasing number of scientists who are engaged in the study of animal behaviour by presenting their theoretical ideas and research to their colleagues and to those in neighbouring fields.

A collection of review essays providing overviews of key areas of current interest in the field of behaviour. This volume explores a range of biological and psychological research, such as sexual coercion. The main topic of the last three chapters is the area of behavioural development.

Covering aspects of biological and psychological research into behaviour, this collection of papers examines key theoretical issues in chapters on imitation, on the role of parasites in sexual selection, and on cognitive ethology.

This text presents an overview of research on how stress affects physiology and behaviour in both animals and humans. Coverage includes the effects of stress on the neuroendocrine and immune systems, the evolutionary adaptation to stress, and how organisms buffer themselves against stress.
