行為生態學匯集了該學科各方面的重要工作，具有廣泛的基礎，涵蓋了經驗和理論方法。包括對所有行為有機體的研究，包括植物、無脊椎動物、脊椎動物和人類。行為生態學從最廣泛的意義上解釋該領域，包括1)使用生態和進化過程來解釋行為模式的發生和適應意義;2)使用行為過程來預測生態模式，3)經驗的、比較的分析，將行為與所發生的環境相關聯。《行為生態學》是國際行為生態學協會的官方期刊。行為生態學的所有個人和學生訂閱者都自動成為社會的成員。有關更多信息，請參見訂閱信息。《行為生態學》雙月刊。

Bringing together significant work on all aspects of the subject, Behavioral Ecology is broad-based and covers both empirical and theoretical approaches. Studies on the whole range of behaving organisms, including plants, invertebrates, vertebrates, and humans, are included.Behavioral Ecology construes the field in its broadest sense to include 1) the use of ecological and evolutionary processes to explain the occurrence and adaptive significance of behavior patterns; 2) the use of behavioral processes to predict ecological patterns, and 3) empirical, comparative analyses relating behavior to the environment in which it occurs.Behavioral Ecology is the official journal of the International Society for Behavioral Ecology. All individuals and student subscribers to Behavioral Ecology automatically become members of the Society. For more information see the subscription information.Behavioral Ecology is published bimonthly.
