Toward a behavioral ecology of rescue behavior. [PDF]
Evol Psychol, 2013 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]
Anais 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 ...

Behavioral Ethics Ecologies of Human-Artificial Intelligence Systems
Behavioral Sciences, 2022 Historically, evolution of behaviors often took place in environments that changed little over millennia. By contrast, today, rapid changes to behaviors and environments come from the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) and the infrastructures ...

The lemur baseline: how lemurs compare to monkeys and apes in the Primate Cognition Test Battery [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Primates have relatively larger brains than other mammals even though brain tissue is energetically costly. Comparative studies of variation in cognitive skills allow testing of evolutionary hypotheses addressing socioecological factors driving the ...

Olfactory Inspection of Female Reproductive States in Chimpanzees
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 In mammalian species, olfactory cues are important for within and between species communication. These cues can be part of multimodal signals indicating, for example, female fertility potentially perceived by male conspecifics.

Sex differences in audience effects on anogenital scent marking in the red-fronted lemur
Scientific Reports, 2022 How the presence of conspecifics affects scent mark deposition remains an understudied aspect of olfactory communication, even though scent marking occurs in different social contexts.
