项目摘要

Ethology, the biological study of behavior, emerged as a major new scientific discipline in the first two decades after World War II, building upon conceptual and methodological foundations established by Konrad Lorenz and Niko Tinbergen in the 1930s. In the post-war period, increasing numbers of researchers were drawn to the study of behavior, the primary institutional structures of the discipline of ethology were created, biennial international congresses served to define and guide the ethological community, and ethology's early conceptual foundations underwent elaboration and alteration. Dr. Burkhardt's goal is to describe and analyze ethology's development from 1945 to 1965. Taking a comparative and "ecological" approach, he is exploring how the guiding issues, concepts, and practices of ethology evolved as the original founders of the discipline and a new generation of investigators established research centers in Germany, Holland, Great Britain, and the United States and responded to the challenges and opportunities provided by contact with investigators from other disciplines. This study builds on Dr. Burkhardt's earlier research on animal behavior studies before World War II. This research is aimed at presenting the first systematic treatment of the history of ethology in this century.

动物行为学，行为的生物学研究，成为一个主要的新的科学学科在世界后的头二十年第二次世界大战，建立在概念和方法基础上由康拉德·洛伦茨和尼科·丁伯根在20世纪30年代创立。在战后，越来越多的研究人员被吸引到行为的研究，主要的制度结构，动物行为学的学科被创建，两年一度的国际大会的作用是定义和指导动物行为学团体，动物行为学的早期概念基础经历了和改变。伯克哈德博士的目标是描述和分析从1945年到1965年的动物行为学发展。以比较和“生态”的方法，他正在探索如何引导动物行为学的问题、概念和实践随着学科的创始人和新一代的研究人员在德国，荷兰，英国和美国，并对通过接触提供的挑战和机遇其他学科的研究人员。这项研究建立在博士。伯克哈德之前对动物行为的研究二次世界大战这项研究旨在提出第一个本世纪动物行为学史的系统论述。
