Microglia modulate stable wakefulness via the thalamic reticular nucleus in mice
Nature Communications, 2021 Here, the authors show that microglia depletion results in unstable wakefulness and altered levels of ceramide, influencing microglia in the mouse thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN). Stable wakefulness can be restored by activation of the TRN or inhibition

Behavior and Behavior Assessment
, 2012 This chapter addresses these questions: What do we mean by “behavior” in personality and social psychology? How can we best assess social behavior? We define behavior as being observable and socially meaningful, but also discuss the dimensions on which behavior varies (e.g., intentional vs. habitual, discrete vs. continuous).

IC-Behavior: An interdisciplinary taxonomy of behaviors
PLOS ONE, 2021 Academic disciplines are often organized according to the behaviors they examine. While most research on a behavior tends to exist within one discipline, some behaviors are examined by multiple disciplines. Better understanding of behaviors and their relationships should enable knowledge transfer across disciplines and theories, thereby dramatically ...

Is Defensive Behavior a Subtype of Prosocial Behaviors? [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 Defensive behavior is defined as a behavioral response to threatening situations for survival and body safety of oneself and others (Pulkkinen, 1987; Wrangham, 2018). Defending is a prosocial behavior defined by the intent to help victimized individuals (Eisenberg and Spinrad, 2014; Lambe and Craig, 2020). Lambe and Craig (2020) proposed that defensive

Antenna movements as a function of odorants’ biological value in honeybees (Apis mellifera L.)
Scientific Reports, 2022 In honeybees, the antennae are highly mobile sensory organs that express scanning movements in various behavioral contexts and toward many stimuli, especially odorants. The rules underlying these movements are still unclear. Using a motion-capture system,
