BOOK
Ethoexperimental Approaches to the Study of Behavior
This volume presents the proceedings of a NATO Advanced Study Institute held in Il Ciocco, Tuscany, in July 1988, focusing on ethological and experimental approaches to behavior. It brings together interdisciplinary research from psychology, zoology, genetics, and neuroscience, emphasizing the integration of laboratory experiments with naturalistic observations of behavior. The work highlights emerging trends in aggression research, particularly the shift toward studying diverse behavioral patterns and their biological bases in natural contexts. Topics covered include feeding, defense, stress, mating, and parental behaviors, with strong attention to how animal models can inform the physiological and pharmacological understanding of human behavior.
