Abstract

Horse behavior has been a steady topic of interest in Applied Animal Behavior Science. In order to quantify the number of papers on equine behavior published during the first fifty years, we searched Applied Animal Ethology and Applied Animal Behaviour Science on Science Direct for papers on horses (Equus caballus) from 1974 through 2023. The papers on equine behavior can be divided by subject matter into eleven categories: welfare, maintenance, learning, personality, communication, Przewalski horse, foal behavior and development, cribbing, sexual, and maternal behavior. For cross-species comparison, all papers were further classified by the most common domestic animals. There have been 428 research papers on equine behavior published in Applied Animal Ethology and Applied Animal Behaviour Science. The number of papers on equine behavior was smaller than those on the behavior of food producing animals, but larger than those on cats and wild animals.

五十年的马行为研究

马的行为一直是应用动物行为科学研究的热点。为了量化前五十年马行为的论文发表数量，我们在Science Direct上检索了应用动物行为学和应用动物行为科学，检索了1974年至2023年关于马（Equus caballus）的论文。关于马行为的论文按主题可分为福利、维护、学习、个性、交流、普氏野马、马驹行为与发育、啃食、性和母性行为等11类。为了进行跨物种比较，所有论文都进一步按最常见的家畜分类。在《应用动物行为学》和《应用动物行为科学》上发表了428篇关于马行为的研究论文。关于马的行为的论文数量少于关于食物生产动物行为的论文，但多于关于猫和野生动物的论文。

期刊介绍： This journal publishes relevant information on the behaviour of domesticated and utilized animals. Topics covered include: -Behaviour of farm, zoo and laboratory animals in relation to animal management and welfare -Behaviour of companion animals in relation to behavioural problems, for example, in relation to the training of dogs for different purposes, in relation to behavioural problems -Studies of the behaviour of wild animals when these studies are relevant from an applied perspective, for example in relation to wildlife management, pest management or nature conservation -Methodological studies within relevant fields The principal subjects are farm, companion and laboratory animals, including, of course, poultry. The journal also deals with the following animal subjects: -Those involved in any farming system, e.g. deer, rabbits and fur-bearing animals -Those in ANY form of confinement, e.g. zoos, safari parks and other forms of display -Feral animals, and any animal species which impinge on farming operations, e.g. as causes of loss or damage -Species used for hunting, recreation etc. may also be considered as acceptable subjects in some instances -Laboratory animals, if the material relates to their behavioural requirements
