Avian personalities: characterization and epigenesis.
TLDR
The results show a surprising similarity between the great tit and a rodent model, suggesting a fundamental principle in the organization of behavioral profiles and suggest variation in selection pressure in time and space and assortative mating are plausible mechanisms accounting for the maintenance of different behavioral profiles within the same population.About:

Integrating animal temperament within ecology and evolution.
Denis Réale,Simon M. Reader,Simon M. Reader,Daniel Sol,Daniel Sol,Peter T. McDougall,Niels Jeroen Dingemanse +6 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that temperament can and should be studied within an evolutionary ecology framework and provided a terminology that could be used as a working tool for ecological studies of temperament, which includes five major temperament trait categories: shyness‐boldness, exploration‐avoidance, activity, sociability and aggressiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life-history trade-offs favour the evolution of animal personalities
TL;DR: This model simultaneously explains the coexistence of behavioural types, the consistency of behaviour through time and the structure of behavioural correlations across contexts, and explains the common finding that explorative behaviour and risk-related traits like boldness and aggressiveness are common characteristics of animal personalities.

Personality and the emergence of the pace-of-life syndrome concept at the population level
Denis Réale,Dany Garant,Murray M. Humphries,Patrick Bergeron,Vincent Careau,Pierre-Olivier Montiglio +5 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that consistent behavioural differences among individuals, or personality, covary with life history and physiological differences at the within-population, interpopulation and interspecific levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural selection and animal personality
TL;DR: An overview of the available literature on the fitness consequences of personality traits in natural populations is provided and it is hoped that this review will stimulate the use of the phenotypic selection analysis applied to the study of selection on Personality traits in animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
The development of animal personality: relevance, concepts and perspectives
TL;DR: A framework for studying personality development that focuses on the properties of animal personality, and considers how and why these properties may change over time, is provided.

TL;DR: This paper summarizes the current views on coping styles as a useful concept in understanding individual adaptive capacity and vulnerability to stress-related disease and indicates the existence of a proactive and a reactive coping style in feral populations.
