The role of behavior in evolution: a search for mechanism (2008, background): “These observations emphasize that behavior, like any other aspect of the integrated phenotype, can be limited in plasticity (Dall et al. 2004; Merilä and Björklund 2004; Sih et al. 2004).”
Behavioral correlations across activity, mating, exploration, aggression, and antipredator contexts in the European house cricket, Acheta domesticus (2010, background): “Succinctly defined, behavioral syndromes are suites of correlated behaviors expressed either within a given behavioral context (e.g., foraging) or between different contexts (e.g., foraging and antipredator behavior; Sih et al. 2004a, b).”
Ungulate flight responses to human disturbance: a review and meta-analysis. (2008, background): “…of human infrastructure development and power lines on space use by reindeer in Scandinavia and Finland (Nellemann et al., 2000; Nellemann et al., 2001; Vistnes et al., 2001; Nellemann et al., 2003; Skarin et al., 2004; Vistnes et al., 2004; Reimers and Colman, 2006, but see Reimers et al., 2007).”
How not to measure boldness: novel object and antipredator responses are not the same in wild baboons (2012, background): “These can include activity under predation risk (Magnhagen & Borcherding 2008), latency to return to a feeder after a simulated predation event (Bell & Stamps 2004; reviewed in Sih et al. 2004a; Bell 2005) and time orienting towards and investigating a predator (Huntingford 1976; Bell et al. 2010).”
Development of shy/bold behaviour in squid: context-specific phenotypes associated with developmental plasticity (2008, background): “The basic observation that many individuals are consistently ‘shy’ or ‘bold’ implies that many animals may possess some, but limited, ability to express appropriate or optimal behaviours in every situation ( Sih et al. 2004a ).”
The development of animal personality: relevance, concepts and perspectives (2010, unknown): “Changes in personality as a result of experience might very well be adaptive (e.g. Bell & Sih, 2007), but so little is known about the effects of experiential factors on correlations among personality traits that generalizations on this point are currently impossible.”
Costs of dispersal (2012, background): “Trade-offs can subsequently induce dispersal syndromes (or personalities in the case of correlative behaviours) with either negative or positive correlations between the different phases of the dispersal process (Sih, Bell & Johnson, 2004a; Sih et al., 2004b).”
A behavioural syndrome in the field cricket Gryllus integer: intrasexual aggression is correlated with activity in a novel environment (2007, background): “Thus, although behavioural syndromes may sometimes represent constraints on behaviour, explaining apparently ‘non-adaptive’ traits, the aggressiveness/activity syndrome in G. integer could instead represent an adaptive suite of characters (Sih et al., 2004a,b).”
Linking levels of personality: personalities of the ‘average’ and ‘most extreme’ group members predict colony-level personality (2013, background): “Consistent individual differences in behaviour are often referred to as ‘behavioural syndromes’, ‘temperament’, or animal ‘personality’ (Gosling 2001; Dall et al. 2004; Sih et al. 2004), and similarly, consistent differences in group- or colony-level behavioural patterns are referred to as ‘collecti”
Network position: a key component in the characterization of social personality types (2012, background): “Further, as with other consistent individual differences in behaviour, network positions as traits may coevolve with other important behavioural and/ or morphological traits (Sih et al. 2004).”
Behavioral syndrome over the boundaries of life - carryovers from larvae to adult damselfly. (2009, background): “…genetic correlation between behavioral traits suggests that behavioral traits are often structured in personality traits because they are controlled by the same hormones (Ketterson and Nolan 1999; Koolhaas et al. 1999) or genes (Sih, Bell, and Johnson 2004; Sih, Bell, Johnson, and Ziemba 2004).”
Pairs of extreme avian personalities have highest reproductive success (2005, background): “Reactions to different environmental stimuli are furthermore often structured in correlated responses (Boissy 1995; Koolhaas, de Boer & Bohus 1997; Sih et al . 2004; Sih, Bell & Johnson 2004 ).”
Covariation between personalities and individual differences in coping with stress: Converging evidence and hypotheses (2010, background): “One key question is whether consistent profiles arise from a common architectural basis governing different behaviours, e.g. the effect of pleiotropic hormones or genes that control multiple behaviours (Sih et al., 2004a; Bell, 2005).”
Fitness consequences of personality: a meta-analysis (2008, methodology): “A generally aggressive individual, for example, may be at an advantage when competing with conspecifics for mates and therefore have higher reproductive success, but such a personality attribute may be costly if this behavioral pattern is maintained in the antipredator context, thus lowering surviva”
Resilience in farm animals: biology, management, breeding and implications for animal welfare (2016, background): “When the behavioural response is consistent across time and across situations it is described as a behavioural type, temperament or personality (Sih et al. 2004; MacKay and Haskell 2015).”
