We investigated whether peripheral AVP modulates behavioural responses in females of two closely related African striped mouse species that differ in social organisation: group-living Rhabdomys pumilio and solitary-living R. dilectus dilectus. Using a three-chamber sociability and social novelty test, we investigated the behavioural responses of focal females, following saline, low-dose or high-dose subcutaneous AVP injections, to either familiar or novel stimulus females. We recorded the duration of time spent in the chambers of each stimulus female, the number of approaches, and the duration of affiliative and aggressive behaviours. Under high AVP, both species spent more time with, and made more approaches to, stimulus females, suggesting enhanced activity or investigatory behaviour. Specifically, under high AVP, R. d. dilectus showed increased affiliative behaviour toward familiar females, while R. pumilio generally showed greater aggression overall and more affiliative behaviour towards the novel female under high AVP. Our findings suggest that peripheral AVP can modulate certain aspects of social behaviour in Rhabdomys, although the underlying mechanisms (social, arousal-based or locomotor) remain untested. These results highlight the importance of considering species differences and peripheral neuropeptide effects when evaluating the associations between AVP expression and behaviour.</p>","PeriodicalId":8746,"journal":{"name":"Behavioural Processes","volume":" ","pages":"105284"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145312156","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As spiders increasingly appear in human environments due to global climatic changes, even non synanthropic species, there is a growing need for effective and natural repellents - not only to reduce human discomfort but also to protect spiders by encouraging them to avoid urban areas and reducing unnecessary fatalities. In this study, we investigated the potential repellent properties of ten essential oils against female wolf spiders <em>Pardosa hortensis</em> (Araneae: Lycosidae), a very common grass species from the second-largest spider genus in the world that may occasionally venture into human surroundings. Through chemical analysis and binary choice behavioral tests, we identified five oils - catnip, cedarwood, cinnamon, citronella, and clove - that significantly deterred spider activity. Chemical constituents such as eugenol, β-caryophyllene, and geraniol likely contribute to these repellent effects. While further research is needed to validate these findings across diverse spider species, our study highlights the potential of essential oils and essential oil yielding plants as natural spider repellents, either at the entrances of houses or as natural garden defenses with specific plants. Altogether, it gives promise for arachnid management strategies and for mitigating conflicts between humans and spiders.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8746,"journal":{"name":"Behavioural Processes","volume":"233 ","pages":"Article 105283"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145306825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study used artificial organisms (AOs) animated by the Evolutionary Theory of Behavior Dynamics (ETBD) to evaluate the extent to which rapid reacquisition and its mitigation can be captured within a computational framework. AOs with phenotypes characterized by a high sensitivity to environmental contingencies exhibited reduced reacquisition of the target response following intermittent reinforcement compared to extinction, replicating prior findings. In contrast, AOs with diminished sensitivity to environmental changes showed little difference in reacquisition across response elimination conditions; instead, their relapse was primarily driven by the density of reinforcement in the reacquisition challenge condition. These findings revealed that susceptibility to disruption varied systematically with mutation rate, offering a computational perspective on how reinforcement sensitivity modulates behavioral persistence. These findings suggest that the impact of reinforcement history on relapse is phenotype-dependent and potentially shaped by operant variability.

Several factors may have contributed to this outcome, including the testing of wild-caught birds in a laboratory environment, the novelty or acoustic similarity of the stimuli, and potential habituation over time. Preference dynamics also varied across individuals, possibly reflecting differences in age or prior experiences. Nevertheless, birds readily engaged with the operant preference testing system, validating the setup and paving the way for a wide range of future research questions.
