Animals experience varying levels of predation risk as they navigate heterogeneous
landscapes, and behavioral responses to perceived risk can structure ecosystems. The …

Counterintuitively, biases in behavior or cognition can improve decision making. Under
conditions of uncertainty and asymmetric costs of 'false-positive'and 'false-negative'errors …

A growing number of studies quantify the impact of nonlethal human disturbance on the
behavior and reproductive success of animals. Athough many are well designed and …

Human cognition is often biased, from judgments of the time of impact of approaching
objects all the way through to estimations of social outcomes in the future. We propose these …

My objective here is to provide a comprehensive review of recent empirical and theoretical
work on antipredator decision making. The ways in which predators influence the behavioral …

The amount of risk animals perceive in a given circumstance (ie their degree of 'fear') is a
difficult motivational state to study. While many studies have used flight initiation distance as …

Trophic cascades are textbook examples of predator indirect effects on ecological systems.
Yet there is considerable debate about their nature, strength and overall importance. This …

A negative relationship between group size and levels of individual vigilance is widespread
in socially feeding vertebrates. The main explanation of this 'group-size effect', the many …

Site fidelity, the tendency to return to a previously occupied location, has been observed in
numerous species belonging to at least three phyla. In this paper I develop a general model …
