Neophobia is not only avoidance: improving neophobia tests by combining cognition and ecology (2015, background): “Accordingly, sometimes other fear-related behaviours correlate with neophobia [61], and other times they do not [62,63], potentially indicating situations where neophobic responses are influenced by information processing, not fear.”
Fish behavioral types and their ecological consequences (2014, unknown): “A similar result was found when investigating two measures that are often assumed to quantify boldness (i.e., response to a novel object and response to a predator; Carter et al. 2012).”
Animal personality: what are behavioural ecologists measuring? (2013, methodology): “For example, are all individual baboons (Papio ursinus) that handle a novel food item for longer than 150 s equally bold (Carter et al., 2012a)?”
