How does temperature affect behaviour? Multilevel analysis of plasticity, personality and predictability in hermit crabs (2013, methodology): “…simultaneously investigated between-individual differences in mean behaviour (in a given situation) in relation to the betweenindividual differences in responses across situations (i.e. differences in behavioural reaction norm; Dingemanse et al. 2010; Stamps & Groothuis 2010; Mathot et al. 2012).”
Development of boldness and docility in yellow-bellied marmots (2013, background): “Environmental factors that correlated with personality traits changed over developmental stages, suggesting that the environment influences age-specific personality (Stamps & Groothuis 2010).”
Between-individual differences in behavioural plasticity within populations: causes and consequences (2013, background): “‘Phenotypic flexibility’ (Piersma & Drent 2003), ‘reversible plasticity’ (Gabriel et al. 2005), ‘contextual plasticity’ (Stamps & Groothuis 2010a, b) and ‘responsiveness’ (Sih & Bell 2008; Wolf et al. 2008) are terms used in the recent literature to label such short-term environmental effects on…”
Animal personality: what are behavioural ecologists measuring? (2013, background): “A related concept, behavioural syndromes, goes one step further, referring to individual-level differences in correlations between personality traits or behaviours (Table 1; see also Stamps & Groothuis, 2010).”
Personality and metamorphosis: is behavioral variation consistent across ontogenetic niche shifts? (2012, positive): “…advances in the animal personality literature (Krause et al. 2010; Schuett et al. 2010; Wilson and Godin 2010), certain areas of research remain largely unexplored (Stamps and Groothuis 2010a), for example, the ways in which life-history and developmental processes are integrated with personality.”
Boldness, trappability and sampling bias in wild lizards (2012, background): “Individuals show a behavioural syndrome when one or more personality traits correlate through time or across contexts (Stamps & Groothuis 2010).”
Fish behavioral types and their ecological consequences (2014, neutral): “Today the study of consistent individual differences in behavior enjoys a vigorous growth, as evidenced by the publication of a number of recent reviews (e.g., Sih et al. 2004a, 2004b; Réale et al. 2007; Sih and Bell 2008; Stamps and Groothuis 2010; Wolf and Weissing 2012), including three reviews d”
Pairs of zebra finches with similar ‘personalities’ make better parents (2011, background): “There is increasing interest in the evolution and maintenance of consistent, stable, individual differences in behaviour across time and/or contexts (‘personality’) in many animals (e.g. Dall et al. 2004; Sih et al. 2004; Stamps & Groothuis 2010).”
Boldness–exploration behavioral syndrome: interfamily variability and repeatability of personality traits in the young of the convict cichlid (Amatitlania siquia) (2015, background): “When and how individual personality differences emerge in a population is thus of considerable interest but not well understood (Stamps and Groothuis 2010; Sih et al. 2015).”
Studying personality variation in invertebrates: why bother? (2014, background): “It has been proposed that a profound understanding of such personality development is important to unravel the evolution of personality variation (e.g. Groothuis & Trillmich, 2011; Stamps & Groothuis, 2010a, 2010b).”
