Editeur : Cambridge, UK : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2015 Importance : 471 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-107-01116-8 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Animal communication Behavioural ecology Cognition Ethology Pychology,Comparative Résumé : Integrating developments from psychology, ethology and neuroscience, this is an undergraduate introduction to cognitive processes across species. The authors merge classic studies and contemporary research to give students a full picture of the evolving field of comparative cognition.

Titre : Animal intelligence: from individual to social cognition Type de document : livre Auteurs : Reznikova, Z. Mention d'édition : 01 éd. Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2007 Importance : 472 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-53202-0 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé en rayon le 10/04/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Behaviour Ethology Social behaviour Résumé : From ants to whales, the lives of animals are filled with challenges that demand minute-by-minute decisions: to fight or flee, dominate or obey, take-off, share, eat, spit out or court. Learning develops adaptive tuning to a changeable environment, while intelligence helps animals use their learned experiences in new situations. Using examples from field to laboratory, Animal Intelligence pools resources from ethology, behavioural ecology and comparative psychology to help the reader enter the world of wild intelligence through the analysis of adventures, of ideas and methods, rather than through theoretic modelling. It reminds us that there is a world of intellectual biodiversity out there, providing a multi-faceted panorama of animal intelligence. Written in an accessible and charming style, and with undergraduate and graduate students in mind, this book should be read by anyone with an interest in the world of animal behaviour.

ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-2-7445-0116-6 Note générale : ISBN-10 : 2-7445-0116-6; Traduction de la 3e édition anglaise par Jacqueline d'Huart, révision scientifique de René Zayan; Trad. de "Animal behaviour: psychobiology, ethology and evolution", Third edition by David McFarland Langues : Français (fre) Mots-clés : Animals Behaviour Communication between animals Ethology Résumé : L'étude moderne du comportement prend ses racines dans trois différents courants de pensée scientifique : la psychologie, la physiologie et la zoologie. Ces disciplines ont donné naissance à la psychologie comparative, à la psychologie physiologique, à l'éthologie et à la sociobiologie. Cet ouvrage comporte trois parties, la première explore les explications évolutives des schémas comportementaux observés chez les animaux et est suivie d'une discussion approfondie des mécanismes du comportement. La dernière section examine des schémas comportementaux complexes tels que les processus d'apprentissage, la communication et les émotions qui rassemblent les approches évolutives et mécanistes. S'adressant principalement aux professeurs et étudiants des 2e et 3e cycles en biologie animale, zoologie, écologie et en psychologie, le texte ne requiert aucune connaissance préalable.

Titre : Foraging: behavior and ecology Type de document : livre Auteurs : Stephens, D.W.(Ed.) ; Brown, J.S.(Ed.) ; Ydenberg, R.C.(Ed.) Editeur : Chicago : The University of Chicago Press Année de publication : 2007 Importance : 608 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-226-77264-6 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé en rayon le 10/04/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Animal behaviour Ethology Feeding habits Foraging Résumé : Foraging is fundamental to animal survival and reproduction, yet it is much more than a simple matter of finding food; it is a biological imperative. Animals must find and consume resources to succeed, and they make extraordinary efforts to do so. For instance, pythons rarely eat, but when they do, their meals are large—as much as 60 percent larger than their own bodies. The snake's digestive system is normally dormant, but during digestion metabolic rates can increase fortyfold. A python digesting quietly on the forest floor has the metabolic rate of thoroughbred in a dead heat. This and related foraging processes have broad applications in ecology, cognitive science, anthropology, and conservation biology—and they can be further extrapolated in economics, neurobiology, and computer science. Foraging is the first comprehensive review of the topic in more than twenty years. A monumental undertaking, this volume brings together twenty-two experts from throughout the field to offer the latest on the mechanics of foraging, modern foraging theory, and foraging ecology. The fourteen essays cover all the relevant issues, including cognition, individual behavior, caching behavior, parental behavior, antipredator behavior, social behavior, population and community ecology, herbivory, and conservation. Considering a wide range of taxa, from birds to mammals to amphibians, Foraging will be the definitive guide to the field.

Professor Dugatkin creates a balanced discussion in several ways: by recognizing genetic evolution as the primary force underlying animal behavior while also discussing the role of learning and cultural transmission, by placing equal emphasis on theory and empirical work, by employing a diverse group of case studies, and by covering both vertebrates and invertebrates extensively. Principles of Animal Behavior also features exclusive interviews with leading scholars and researchers, lively prose, and a vivid art program, ensuring that it will be a welcome addition to the field.
