DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8883
Abstract: Abstract Individual animals can react to the changes in their environment by exhibiting behaviors in an individual‐specific way leading to individual differences in phenotypic plasticity. However, the effect of multiple environmental factors on multiple traits… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00265-019-2681-0
Abstract: Animals are thought to adjust the intensity of their parental defense to fitness benefits associated with their current reproduction. They should be more defensive when they breed early in the season, when they produce more… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/eth.12957
Abstract: Despite continuing interest in the proximate energetic constraints on individual variation in behavior, there is presently equivocal evidence for correlations between metabolism and behavior at the among‐individual level. Possible reasons for this include imprecise estimates… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jeb.13938
Abstract: Increases in phenotypic variation under extreme (e.g. novel or stressful) environmental conditions is emerging as a crucial process through which evolutionary adaptation can occur. Lack of prior stabilising selection, as well as potential instability of… read more here.
