Hormones of choice: the neuroendocrinology of partner preference in animals.
Partner preference behavior can be viewed as the outcome of a set of hierarchical choices made by an individual in anticipation of mating. The first choice involves approaching a conspecific verses an individual of another species. As a rule, a conspecific is picked as a mating partner, but early life experiences can alter that outcome. Within a species, an animal then has the choice between a ...
متن کاملHormones and Memory
Research on novel and nonreproductive actions of steroid hormones has expanded in recent years. The neuroprotective actions of sex hormones in humans and in animal models have been known for some time. For example, women appear to recover better from head injuries than do men, and these and other observations have led to studies on the neuroprotective effects of estrogen. In animal models of br...
متن کاملEmotional Hormones and Memory Modulation
Emotionally arousing experiences are generally well remembered. We know that from our own experiences as well as from extensive research findings. Memories of automobile accidents, fires, muggings, rapes, wartime battles, terrorists’ bombings, and other intensely emotional experiences are often reported as being ‘deeply etched in the brain.’ We also remember significant details of special occas...
متن کاملNeuroendocrinology of song behavior and avian brain plasticity: multiple sites of action of sex steroid hormones.
Seasonal changes in the brain of songbirds are one of the most dramatic examples of naturally occurring neuroplasticity that have been described in any vertebrate species. In males of temperate-zone songbird species, the volumes of several telencephalic nuclei that control song behavior are significantly larger in the spring than in the fall. These increases in volume are correlated with high r...
