Sex matters: a social context to boldness in guppies (Poecilia reticulata) (2010, background): “Several studies have shown that bold individuals explore novel environments more quickly and have faster growth rates than shy ones (Krause et al. 1999; Fraser et al. 2001; Ward et al. 2004; Westerberg et al. 2004; Brown et al. 2007).”
Occupation, body size and sex ratio of round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) in established and newly invaded areas of an Ontario river (2011, background): “…male biased upstream extent may result from density-dependant intraspecific competition amongst competitive males (see Stammler & Corkum, 2005) and/or a propensity for some individuals to seek new territory (e.g. ‘movers’ versus ‘stayers’ or boldness, Wilson et al., 1994; Fraser et al., 2001).”
Development of shy/bold behaviour in squid: context-specific phenotypes associated with developmental plasticity (2008, background): “Consistent shy/bold variation between individuals often covaries with growth (Ward et al. 2004), body size (Brown & Braithwaite 2004), dispersal (Fraser et al. 2001), recruitment (Armitage & Van Vuren 2003), survival (Reale & Festa-Bianchet 2003; Dingemanse et al. 2004) and reproductive success…”
Boldness and Reproductive Fitness Correlates in the Eastern Mosquitofish, Gambusia holbrooki (2010, background): “Further, boldness has also been shown to be associated with aggression (Johnson & Sih 2005), mate selection (Godin & Dugatkin 1996), dispersal (Fraser et al. 2001), invasiveness (Rehage & Sih 2004), general activity, exploration and space use (Wilson & Godin 2009), as well as foraging and…”
Integrating animal temperament within ecology and evolution (2007, background): “Riechert & Hall (2000) found that individual desert spiders Agelenopsis aperta differed in their anti-predator behaviour and aggressiveness depending on their habitat type. In a resource–limited, highly competitive, arid habitat, spiders are aggressive towards both conspecifics and prey, and bold to”
MEASURING LANDSCAPE CONNECTIVITY: THE CHALLENGE OF BEHAVIORAL LANDSCAPE ECOLOGY (2005, background): “…of the organisms (sensu Lima and Zollner 1996), their susceptibility to competition and predation, as well as their level of conspecific attraction, will play an important role at determining the movements of individuals (Danielson 1992, Bélisle 1998, Fraser et al. 2001, Greene and Stamps 2001).”
Size matters: a test of boldness in eight populations of the poeciliid Brachyraphis episcopi (2004, neutral): “In two further studies of the killifish Rivulus hartii, Fraser et al. (2001) and Wilson et al. (1993) both found no relation between boldness and body size.”
Unpredictability in food supply during early life influences boldness in fish (2010, background): “Intraspecific comparisons of both great tits Parus major and killifish Rivulus hartii showed that bolder individuals dispersed further than shyer conspecifics (Dingemanse et al. 2003; Fraser et al. 2001, respectively), supporting this idea.”
Landscape connectivity and animal behavior: functional grain as a key determinant for dispersal (2007, positive): “Two empirical studies document that bolder individuals show ‘‘super-dispersers’’ characteristics and disperse further than shyer ones (Fraser et al. 2001; Dingemanse et al. 2003).”
Individual personality traits influence group exploration in a feral guppy population (2014, background): “Although individual personality trait can determine how individuals move in space (Fraser et al. 2001), a handful of studies have examined the relationship between the movement of the group and average group level traits (Blumstein et al.”
Boldness–exploration behavioral syndrome: interfamily variability and repeatability of personality traits in the young of the convict cichlid (Amatitlania siquia) (2015, background): “Boldness and exploratory activity are commonly positively intercorrelated, thus forming a behavioral syndrome, in fishes (e.g., Fraser et al. 2001; Wilson and Godin 2009; Cote, Fogarty, et al. 2010; Wisenden et al. 2011) and in birds (e.g., Verbeek et al. 1994; van Oers et al. 2004), and both…”
Individual variation in temporal activity patterns in open-field tests (2010, neutral): “When subjected to an open-field test, some individuals are consistently more active than others (Fraser et al. 2001; Carere et al. 2005; Boon et al. 2007; Martin & Réale 2008).”
