The Roles Of Food And Predation In Shaping Adaptive And Maladaptive Behaviors In Postfire Bird Species, Bruce Andrew Robertson Jan 2006

The Roles Of Food And Predation In Shaping Adaptive And Maladaptive Behaviors In Postfire Bird Species, Bruce Andrew Robertson

Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers

Most animals live in rapidly changing environments, and within-individual phenotypic plasticity can allow populations to track sources of selection that often vary dramatically in time and space. However, if conditions change too rapidly, the cues animals use to track environmental changes may become uncoupled from the ultimately important factors with which they have been historically correlated. Animals relying upon proximal cues to guide their behaviors may, in novel environments, consistently make errors. When these errors occur within the context of choosing a habitat, the organism is said to be caught in an ‘ecological trap’. Herein, I develop a conceptual model …

The Discovery Of Self Through Creative Exploration, Stephanie Jo Pointer

Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers

Within these pages lie reflections and descriptions of a voyage into unknown territory. A voyage, which has ended, yet is just beginning. Here for your consideration follows a documentation of an artistic process. Humbly, I put before you a modest attempt at presenting a number of personal discoveries made within the last four years. First I had chosen to participate in a program of Integrated Arts, the Creative Pulse. My participation in the Artist-Forest-Community Residency in the Helena National Forest the week before I began the program initiated a desire to present my artwork and become a better teacher. Expanding …

Risk-Sensitive Foraging In Humans Budgeting Time: Correlated With Real-World Financial Situation, Stephanie Carsten Kucera Jan 2006

Risk-Sensitive Foraging In Humans Budgeting Time: Correlated With Real-World Financial Situation, Stephanie Carsten Kucera

Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers

Foraging theory has been studied extensively in non-human animals. Using models developed through animal-study, researchers have recently begun to examine how humans make decisions with regard to resource-expenditure. Using a computer-based task, the proposed study investigated risk-sensitive decision-making, in humans. Participants were asked to "spend" a most valuable resource, time, in order to complete a computer-based task. Participants were asked to choose between two computer-generated selection boxes, each yielding a different delay-value. However, participants were given different feedback as to how each session progressed (i.e. whether ahead or behind) depending on the budget condition to which he was assigned. It …
