Introduction: Mechanisms of Animal Behaviour

This book comprises four volumes, roughly dealing with the four main problems in animal behaviour, namely the causation, development, function and evolution of behaviour. The way in which these four topics were assigned to the different volumes is pragmatic, and there is bound to be some overlap. Nevertheless, we feel that the division of the study of animal behaviour into these four questions,...

Putative physiological mechanisms underlying tDCS analgesic effects

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique that induces changes in excitability, and activation of brain neurons and neuronal circuits. It has been observed that beyond regional effects under the electrodes, tDCS also alters activity of remote interconnected cortical and subcortical areas. This makes the tDCS stimulation technique potentially prom...

Pet Face: Mechanisms Underlying Human-Animal Relationships

Accumulating behavioral and neurophysiological studies support the idea of infantile (cute) faces as highly biologically relevant stimuli rapidly and unconsciously capturing attention and eliciting positive/affectionate behaviors, including willingness to care. It has been hypothesized that the presence of infantile physical and behavioral features in companion (or pet) animals (i.e., dogs and ...

The Evolution of Mechanisms Underlying Behaviour

More than any other single work, Niko Tinbergen’s landmark paper “On aims and methods of ethology” (Tinbergen, 1963) shaped the scientific study of animal behaviour and continues to be a guiding influence on the field (Manning, 2009; Barrett et al., 2013; Bateson and Laland, 2013; Dawkins, 2014; Strassmann, 2014; Taborsky, 2014). Building on the work of Huxley (1942), Tinbergen identified four ...

Neural mechanisms underlying the evolvability of behaviour.

The complexity of nervous systems alters the evolvability of behaviour. Complex nervous systems are phylogenetically constrained; nevertheless particular species-specific behaviours have repeatedly evolved, suggesting a predisposition towards those behaviours. Independently evolved behaviours in animals that share a common neural architecture are generally produced by homologous neural structur...
