Familiarity and Mate Preference Assessment with the Partner Preference Test [PDF]
Current Protocols, 2021 AbstractIn contrast to traditional laboratory animals, prairie voles form socially monogamous partnerships in the wild and exhibit lasting social preferences for familiar individuals—both mates and same‐sex peers—in the laboratory. Decades of research into the mechanisms supporting pair bonding behavior have made prairie voles an important model ...

Sexual partner preference in animals and humans [PDF]
Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2020 Sex differences in brain and behavior of animals including humans result from an interaction between biological and environmental influences. This is also true for the differences between men and women concerning sexual orientation. Sexual differentiation is mediated by three groups of biological mechanisms: early actions of sex steroids, more direct ...
