Behavioral Ethics Ecologies of Human-Artificial Intelligence Systems

open access: yesBehavioral 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 ...

Plumage color degradation indicates reproductive effort: an experiment

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Plumage color has traditionally been regarded as a static ornamental trait, but evidence is accumulating for significant color changes without molt that typically reduce the conspicuousness of ornamentation.

The lemur baseline: how lemurs compare to monkeys and apes in the Primate Cognition Test Battery [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Casanovas are liars: behavioral syndromes, sperm competition risk, and the evolution of deceptive male mating behavior in live-bearing fishes [v3; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/1zi]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2013
Male reproductive biology can by characterized through competition over mates as well as mate choice. Multiple mating and male mate choice copying, especially in internally fertilizing species, set the stage for increased sperm competition, i.e., sperm ...

Of hummingbirds and helicopters: Hovering costs, competitive ability, and foraging strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Wing morphology and flight kinematics profoundly influence foraging costs and the overall behavioral ecology of hummingbirds. By analogy with helicopters, previous energetic studies have applied the momentum theory of aircraft propellers to estimate ...

Visual search and decision making in bees: time, speed and accuracy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
An insect searching a meadow for flowers may detect several flowers from different species per second, so the task of choosing the right flowers rapidly is not trivial.
