"It Felt More like a Revolution." How Behavioral Ecology Succeeded Ethology, 1970-1990. [PDF]

open access: yesBer Wiss, 2022

Although the study of helping behavior has revolutionized the field of behavioral ecology, scientific examination of rescue behavior remains extremely rare, except perhaps in ants, having been described as early as 1874. Nonetheless, recent work in our laboratories has revealed several new patterns of rescue behavior that appear to be much more ...

The evolution of the concept of sensory ecology and the influence of behavioral ecology [PDF]

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2023
The science of sensory ecology formally emerged in the book of Ali (1978), when behavioral ecology was gaining popularity. Until 2020, three main books were written on the subject, in 1992 (Dusenbery 1992), 2001 (Barth & Schmid 2001) and 2013 (Stevens ...

Human behavioral ecology and niche construction

open access: yesEvolutionary Anthropology (print), 2021
We examine the relationship between niche construction theory (NCT) and human behavioral ecology (HBE), two branches of evolutionary science that are important sources of theory in archeology. We distinguish between formal models of niche construction as
