Research in Developmental and Comparative Psychology – serie

First Published in 1995. Behavioral Development is Volume 1 in the Research and Developmental and Comparative Psychology series - dedicated to honour the contributions of T. C. Schneirla. This volume represents the substantive content of the Fifth T. C. Schneirla Conference, held in November of 1989. The volume is divided into three parts: the significance of the intensity of the adequate stimulus; the process of development and the concept of integrative levels. Schneirla is still recognized as one of the foremost theoreticians in comparative psychology, and the rebirth of interest in comparative psychology is evident.

First Published in 1997. The papers in this volume on invertebrate behaviour, predominantly ant behaviour, are presented as a tribute to T. C. Schneirla and to his theoretical and experimental contributions to our understanding of the development and evolution of behaviour. His emphasis on development also brought to the fore new questions, many of which are addressed in this volume. Advances in technical instrumentation for research will be useful in reformulating these old questions in new and significantly constructive programs for responsible research. The theoretical contributions of Schneirla will continue to prove an important facilitation of those new research techniques.
