title: Habituation of Predator Inspection and Boldness in the Guppy (Poecilia reticulata) creator: Budaev, Dr. Sergey subject: Behavioral Neuroscience subject: Animal Behavior subject: Ethology subject: Comparative Psychology description: This study examined habituation of the predator inspection behavior in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata) and its relationship with boldness (open field locomotion). Two different strategies were discovered: (1) initial inspection of a predator-like fish, correlated with boldness; (2) subsequent surveillance, governed by a random underlying process and unrelated with boldness. The surveillance inspection is probably linked with anti-predator vigilance. Possible implications to between-population variation in inspection behavior are discussed. publisher: MAIK Nauka/ Interperiodika date: 2003 type: Journal (Paginated) type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: http://cogprints.org/5878/1/budaev-guppy-inspect-2003.pdf format: text/plain identifier: http://cogprints.org/5878/2/budaev-guppy-inspect-2003.utf8.txt identifier: Budaev, Dr. Sergey (2003) Habituation of Predator Inspection and Boldness in the Guppy (Poecilia reticulata).
