尽管爬行动物在分类、行为和生活方式上具有多样性,但爬行动物的行为一致性还没有像在鱼类、鸟类和哺乳动物中那样得到研究。需要谨慎使用诸如个性、气质、个性和行为综合症等术语,因为它们具有重叠的内涵,并且以拟人化的方式应用具有不同的危险。大多数对爬行动物这种现象的研究都是利用蛇和蜥蜴。对蛇类(主要是Thamnophis属)反捕食者行为的研究已经提供了强有力的证据,证明个体行为随时间的一致性,一些证据表明不同情况下的一致性,明确的证据表明反捕食者行为的个体差异存在遗传基础,以及将个体差异与健康相关结果联系起来的有限证据。对蜥蜴的研究反映了对其他脊椎动物的研究结果,重点关注五种特征中的一种或多种:害羞-大胆,探索-回避,活动,社交,同种攻击,以及它们之间可能的关系。本文综述了用于研究蜥蜴这些性状的方法和统计分析,以及这些性状与形态、繁殖、激素、适应性、生活史和其他因素的关系。例如,在评估生命速度假说的研究中,普通蜥蜴(活蜥蜴)已经成为一种模式物种,其结果与其他脊椎动物的结果不同。对海龟和鳄鱼的研究也提出了进一步说明爬行动物研究的比较和方法论价值。
Despite the taxonomic, behavioral, and lifestyle diversity among reptile species, behavioral consistency in reptiles has not been examined to the extent that it has been in fish, birds, and mammals. Careful use of terms such as individuality, temperament, personality, and behavioral syndromes is needed as they carry overlapping connotations and varying dangers of being applied in an anthropomorphic fashion. The majority of research on such phenomena in reptiles has utilized snakes and lizards. Studies on antipredator behavior in natricine snakes, primarily in the genus Thamnophis, has produced strong evidence of individual consistency of behavior over time, some evidence for consistency across situations, clear evidence for a heritable basis for individual differences in antipredator behavior, and limited evidence linking individual variation with fitness-related outcomes. Research in lizards has mirrored findings reported for other vertebrates, focusing on one or more of five traits: shyness–boldness, exploration-avoidance, activity, sociability, conspecific aggression, and possible relationships among them. We review the methodology and statistical analyses used to study these traits in lizards and the relationships of these traits to morphology, reproduction, hormones, fitness, life history, and other factors. The common lizard (Zootoca vivipara) has become a model species, for example, in studies assessing the pace-of-life hypothesis, with results differing from those found in other vertebrates. Studies on turtles and crocodilians are also presented that further illustrate the comparative and methodological value of reptilian studies.
