Description

Fatima Amat-Trigo and three co-authors test whether a river fish has a personality in a 2024 study. European barbel school in rivers, but each fish may lean bold or shy in a steady way. Such a lean, called a reactive-proactive axis, helps a stock weather change if it holds from test to test.

Each fish ran three trials: leave a shelter and roam, face its mirror image, and forage. Every trial ran three times days apart. Some acts, like the wait to leave shelter and the food eaten, were steady per fish. A combined score sorted the fish along the bold-shy line the team sought.
