The study of individual behavioral variation, sometimes called animal personalities or
behavioral types, is now a well-established area of research in behavioral ecology and …

Animal tracking and biologging devices record large amounts of data on individual
movement behaviors in natural environments. In these data, movement ecologists often view …

Research focusing on among‐individual differences in behaviour ('animal personality') has
been blooming for over a decade. Central theories explaining the maintenance of such …

This introduction to the topical collection on Pace-of-life syndromes: a framework for the
adaptive integration of behaviour, physiology, and life history provides an overview of …

The pace-of-life syndrome hypothesis predicts that individual differences in behavior should
integrate with morphological, physiological, and life-history traits along a slow to fast pace-of …

The pace-of-life syndrome (ie, POLS) hypothesis posits that behavioral and physiological
traits mediate the trade-off between current and future reproduction. This hypothesis predicts …

Central theories explaining the maintenance of individual differences in behavior build on
the assumption that behavior mediates life-history trade-offs between current and future …

We present a novel perspective on life‐history evolution that combines recent theoretical
advances in fluctuating density‐dependent selection with the notion of pace‐of‐life …

Individual differences in behaviour characterize humans and animals alike. A hot field in
behavioural ecology asks why this variation in 'personality'evolved. Theory posits that …

Within populations, individuals often show repeatable variation in behaviour, called 'animal
personality'. In the last few decades, numerous empirical studies have attempted to …
