作者探讨了人格研究的比较方法的可行性。对各种动物人格文献的回顾表明，（a）大多数研究使用特质结构，侧重于内部变异，（与跨）物种，并使用行为编码或性状评级;（B）评级通常是可靠的，并显示出一定的有效性（讨论了可能影响可靠性的7个参数和验证的4个挑战）;（c）有些层面是跨物种的，但由于缺乏标准描述，无法进行总结。争论和反对跨物种的比较进行了讨论，并提出了研究指导方针。最后，提出了一个以进化和生态学原理为指导的研究议程。它的结论是，动物研究提供了独特的机会，研究生物，遗传和环境的基础上的个性和研究个性的变化，个性健康的联系，和个性感知。
The author explores the viability of a comparative approach to personality research. A review of the diverse animal-personality literature suggests that (a) most research uses trait constructs, focuses on variation within (vs. across) species, and uses either behavioral codings or trait ratings; (b) ratings are generally reliable and show some validity (7 parameters that could influence reliability and 4 challenges to validation are discussed); and (c) some dimensions emerge across species, but summaries are hindered by a lack of standard descriptors. Arguments for and against cross-species comparisons are discussed, and research guidelines are suggested. Finally, a research agenda guided by evolutionary and ecological principles is proposed. It is concluded that animal studies provide unique opportunities to examine biological, genetic, and environmental bases of personality and to study personality change, personality-health links, and personality perception.
