- The evolvability of artificial neural net-works for robot control (2002, background): “It might be argued that the gaseous modulation of node parameters during operation plays a similar role to stochastic learning in evolutionary simulations of the Baldwin effect (Baldwin, 1896).”

- Play in evolution and development (2007, background): “The position that experiences during ontogeny aVect phylogeny is broadly derived from theory dating back to Spalding in 1873 (Bateson, 2005), Baldwin (1896) and the “Baldwin EVect”, and Lloyd Morgan (1896).”
- Distributed Representations Accelerate Evolution of Adaptive Behaviours (2007, unknown): “Specifically, it is shown that FLL accelerates the appearance of adaptive behaviour, both in its innate form and as FLL-induced behaviour, and that FLL can accelerate the rate at which learned behaviours become innate.”
- Evolution and behavioural responses to human-induced rapid environmental change (2011, background): “Second, suitable behavioural plasticity can allow and shape future evolution of both the behaviour itself and other adaptive responses (e.g. life history or morphological responses) to HIREC (Baldwin 1896; Wcislo 1989; West-Eberhard 2003; Crispo 2007; Ghalambor et al. 2007).”
- The role of phenotypic plasticity in driving genetic evolution (2003, background): “They may be crucial for the colonizers to survive and reproduce above maintenance levels and, hence, for the persistence of the population (Baldwin 1896; Morgan 1896; Robinson & Dukas 1999).”
- Adaptation to an extraordinary environment by evolution of phenotypic plasticity and genetic assimilation (2009, background): “Baldwin (1896), Morgan (1896), Osborn (1897) and Osborn & Poulton (1897) proposed that after a change in environment plasticity of development can produce a partially adaptive phenotype, which subsequently becomes further adapted by natural selection, and that this process may be important for popul”
- Landscapes, Learning Costs, and Genetic Assimilation (1996, background): “In 1896, J. M. Baldwin and C. Lloyd Morgan independently put forward a “new factor” in evolutionary theory that has subsequently become known as the Baldwin effect (Baldwin, 1896; Lloyd Morgan, 1896). Individuals that are able to acquire an evolutionary beneficial trait during their lifetime, throug”
- Evolutionary ecology of learning: insights from fruit flies (2009, unknown): “However, as far back as the end of the nineteenth century, several authors proposed that under some circumstances learning may facilitate evolutionary adaptation to a novel environment (Baldwin 1896; Osborn 1896).”
