Ethologists use a variety of terminology such as "personality", "temperament" and "behavioral syndromes" almost interchangeably to discuss the phenomenon of individuals within a population of animals consistently varying from one another in their behavioral responses to stimuli.

متن کاملIndividual behavioral phenotypes: an integrative meta-theoretical framework. Why "behavioral syndromes" are not analogs of "personality".
Animal researchers are increasingly interested in individual differences in behavior. Their interpretation as meaningful differences in behavioral strategies stable over time and across contexts, adaptive, heritable, and acted upon by natural selection has triggered new theoretical developments. However, the analytical approaches used to explore behavioral data still address population-level ph...

Moreover, over time, both fields independently have developed methods of assessment and treatment that—despite being broadly applicable across populations—exist only in parallel. This also is despite the facts that (1...
