The aim of Advances in the Study of Behavior is to serve scientists
engaged in the study of animal behavior, including psychologists,
neuroscientists, biologists, ethologists, pharmacologists,
endocrinologists, ecologists, and geneticists. Articles in the
series present critical reviews of significant research programs
with theoretical syntheses, reformulation of persistent problems,
and/or highlighting new and exciting research concepts. Volume 34
is purely eclectic and illustrates the breadth of behavior
research. Contents include sexual conflict among insects, the
evolution of sexual cannibalism, odor processing and activity
patterns in honeybees, hormone secretion in vertebrates, bird song
organization, food transfer in primates, game theory approaches to
mutualism, as well as neural mechanisms of learning and memory and
how these change during infant development.
The aim of Advances in the Study of Behavior remains as it has been
since the series began: to serve the increasing number of
scientists who are engaged in the study of animal behavior by
presenting their theoretical ideas and research to their colleagues
and to those in neighboring fields. We hope that the series will
continue its "contribution to the development of the field," as its
intended role was phrased in the Preface to the first volume in
1965. Since that time, traditional areas of animal behavior have
achieved new vigor by the links they have formed with related
fields and by the closer relationship that now exists between those
studying animal and human subjects.
Advances in the Study of Behavior, Volume 31 continues to serve
scientists across a wide spectrum of disciplines. Focusing on new
theories and research developments with respect to behavioral
ecology, evolutionary biology, and comparative psychology, these
volumes foster cooperation and communications in these dense
fields.

serve to foster cooperation and communication in these diverse
fields. Volume 23 focuses on research on the lower vertebrates with
respect to the functional significance of different breeding
strategies, the level at which natural selection acts, methods of
teasing apart the genetic control of behavior, the assumptions
underlying models of territoriality, and signalling systems and the
sensory mechanisms on which they depend.
Advances in the Study of Behavior is the leading series in its
field. Each volume includes a variety of review essays by experts
providing authoritative overviews of key areas of current interest
that are invaluable to the teacher, student, and researcher in the
field of behavior, whether psychologist or biologist. This volume
continues the tradition of excellence in the study of behavior by
covering a whole range of biological and psychological research.
Each of the chapters presents new ideas, with a particularly
interesting approach to sexual coercion. The volume as a whole has
a particular strength in the area of behavioral development, which
is the main topic of the last three chapters.
Advances in the Study of Behavior remains one of the most-turned-to
sources for penetrating insight on the latest findings in behavior
research. This serial has kept pace with the vigorous
multidisciplinary growth of the field and covers all major aspects,
from ecology to endocrinology, in both human and animal subjects.
Critical reviews, presentations of major research programs, and
communication of significant new concepts provide readers with an
up-to-date overview of the latest developments in this field.
The series does not focus narrowly on one or a few fields, but
features articles covering the best behavioral work from a wide
spectrum. The skill and concepts of scientists in such diverse
fields necessarily differ, making the task of developing
cooperation and communication among them a difficult one. But it is
one that is of great importance, and one to which the editors and
publisher of Advances in the Study of Behavior are committed. Each
volume of Advances in the Study of Behavior contains an index, and
each chapter includes references.
