Determinants of Animal Behaviour
Autor: Jo-Anne Cartwright
Are animals intelligent? How do they learn to solve everyday survival problems? Can they be intentionally deceptive? The investigation of animal intelligence and behaviour is an important and fascinating aspect of comparative psychology.
This book thoroughly covers the section on determinants of animal behaviour in the AQA(A) comparative psychology module and deals with the three main topics featured in the syllabus.
Dog Behaviour, Evolution, and Cognition
Autor: Ádám Miklósi
This book is about the biological study of dog behaviour, based on the programme summarized so clearly by Tinbergen in 1963. He, Lorenz and others have always pointed out that the main contribution of ethology is the biological analysis of animal behaviour based on observations in nature. Unfortunately, however, only a handful of mainstream ethologists have applied these concepts to dog behaviour. In contrast to sticklebacks, honeybees or chimpanzees, not to mention a few tens of other species, dogs received relatively little attention from ethologists or comparative psychologists. It seems that these creatures ('man's best friends') have somehow become outcasts from mainstream science, for reasons that are not obviously clear but which may be guessed.
