• Behavioural testing in dogs: A review of methodology in search for standardisation (2006, background): “moving, walking towards the dog in a threatening way or going away abruptly then returning (Murphree and Dykman, 1965; Svartberg and Forkman, 2002) or leaving the dog alone after a period of time together (Newton and Lucas, 1982).”
• Breed-typical behaviour in dogs—Historical remnants or recent constructs? (2006, positive): “By using the dog's score from the variables representing each trait according to Svartberg and Forkman (2002), scores for each dog and trait were calculated.”

• Evaluating the temperament in shelter dogs (2005, background): “According to Svartberg & Forkman (2002), the studies available on temperament assessment of dogs are based on subjective ratings of individual”
• Consistency of personality traits in dogs (2005, methodology): “The Boldness trait, according to Svartberg & Forkman (2002), was equally related to Playfulness, Curiosity/Fearlessness, Chase-proneness and Sociability.”
• Personality and performance in military working dogs: Reliability and predictive validity of behavioral tests (2010, methodology): “89) for the six personality traits taken from the Swedish dog mentality tests (Svartberg and Forkman, 2002) across a time period of two months, but in another sample across a longer time period (1 to 2 years), consistency was much lower (range: 0.”
• Is boldness affected by group composition in young-of-the-year perch (Perca fluviatilis)? (2004, background): “Lower and Bradshaw 2001; Svartberg and Forkman 2002; Armitage and Van Vuren 2003), birds (Dingemanse et al. 2003), cephalopods (Mather and Anderson 1993), and fish (e.g.”
• Trainability and boldness traits differ between dog breed clusters based on conventional breed categories and genetic relatedness (2011, neutral): “Similar traits were previously detected by several other researchers (e.g. trainability: Bradshaw and Goodwin, 1998; Hsu and Serpell, 2003; boldness: Svartberg and Forkman, 2002; neuroticism (reverse to our calmness): Ley et al., 2009; dog-directed aggression (reverse to our dog sociability): Hsu…”
• Behavioral differences among breeds of domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris): Current status of the science (2014, neutral): “In dogs, personality has been assessed, for example, by the traits aggressiveness, sociability, curiosity/fearlessness, and playfulness (Svartberg and Forkman, 2002; Svartberg, 2006) or along the shyness-boldness spectrum (Svartberg, 2002).”
• Behaviour and experiences of dogs during the first year of life predict the outcome in a later temperament test (2014, methodology): “Focusing on the behavioural outcomes in the different sub-tests, the PCA showed results highly consistent with previous research of dog temperament, which have used a range of methods (Svartberg and Forkman, 2002; Ley et al., 2008; Mirkó et al., 2012; Wilsson and Sinn, 2012; Foyer et al., 2013).”
