Psychology Department, 0109, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA
Horm Behav 48:11-22. 2005..These experiments have shown that specific areas and peptidergic components of the social behavior network possess functional properties that evolve in parallel with divergence and convergence in sociality... - Neuro-evolutionary patterning of socialityJames L Goodson
Psychology Department, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093 0109, USA
Proc Biol Sci 272:227-35. 2005.... - Neural responses to territorial challenge and nonsocial stress in male song sparrows: segregation, integration, and modulation by a vasopressin V1 antagonistJames L Goodson
Psychology Department, University of California San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093 0109, USA
Horm Behav 46:371-81. 2004..Thus, species differences in septal AVT function (as previously described in songbirds) likely reflect differences in the relationship of stress or anxiety to species-specific behaviors, or to behavior in species-typical contexts... - Chemoarchitectonic subdivisions of the songbird septum and a comparative overview of septum chemical anatomy in jawed vertebratesJames L Goodson
Psychology Department, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, California 92093, USA
J Comp Neurol 473:293-314. 2004..These findings should provide a useful framework for functional and comparative studies, as they suggest that many features of the septum are highly conserved across vertebrate taxa... - Effects of central vasotocin and mesotocin manipulations on social behavior in male and female zebra finchesJames L Goodson
Psychology Department, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093 0109, USA
Horm Behav 45:136-43. 2004..Thus, in contrast to rodents, partner preference is not readily induced by VT or MT in this species. However, the potential necessity of endogenous VT and MT for natural pair-bond formation remains to be tested... - Putative isotocin distributions in sonic fish: relation to vasotocin and vocal-acoustic circuitryJames L Goodson
Psychology Department, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla 92093, USA
J Comp Neurol 462:1-14. 2003..These findings provided anatomic support for the role of IT and AVT in the modulation of vocal behavior at multiple levels of the central vocal-acoustic circuitry... - Social behavior functions and related anatomical characteristics of vasotocin/vasopressin systems in vertebratesJ L Goodson

Department of Psychology, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA
Behav Brain Res 98:167-80. 1999..These results provide evidence that the septum participates in the regulation of male aggression and song in songbirds, and further suggest that variations in septal function may exist between territorial and colonial species... - Effect of intraseptal vasotocin and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide infusions on courtship song and aggression in the male zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata)J L Goodson
Department of Psychology, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA
J Neuroendocrinol 11:19-25. 1999..Comparison with findings in mammals suggests that modulation of aggression by septal AVT (or AVP) is evolutionarily conserved in vertebrates, but modulation of aggression by VIP has not previously been reported for any vertebrate... - Effect of septal lesions on male song and aggression in the colonial zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) and the territorial field sparrow (Spizella pusilla)J L Goodson
