How does temperature affect behaviour? Multilevel analysis of plasticity, personality and predictability in hermit crabs (2013, background): “…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).”
An approach to estimate short‐term, long‐term and reaction norm repeatability (2015, background): “…(Koolhaas et al. 2010), where it has been proposed that ‘responsiveness’ (Wolf, van Doorn & Weissing 2008) shows individual repeatability both across time and functional contexts due to differences in how individuals process environmental input (Coppens, de Boer & Koolhaas 2010;Mathot et al. 2012).”
Quantifying individual variation in behaviour: mixed-effect modelling approaches. (2013, background): “…distinct patterns of variation to be studied within a single framework (Dingemanse et al. 2010; Westneat et al. 2011) and compared across studies (Mathot et al. 2012), while statistically defining behavioural syndromes as nonzero between-individual correlations clarifies the types of study…”
