B.=?[edit]

what's the B stand for? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.194.107.173 (talk) 14:49, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bumpass according to the "Early life and education" section; I'm putting it in the opening paragraph. Raymond1922 (talk) 20:20, 23 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect reference cited[edit]

"Among the aberrations in behavior were the following: expulsion of young before weaning was complete, wounding of young, increase in homosexual behavior, inability of dominant males to maintain the defense of their territory and females, aggressive behavior of females, passivity of non-dominant males with increased attacks on each other which were not defended against.[2]"

The cited paper ("Behavioral changes due to overpopulation in mice". Portland State University.) was not able to corroborate this statement. This statement is actually derived from Calhoun's 1962 "Population density and social pathology" publication, which can still be accessed via JSTOR (https://www.jstor.org/stable/24937233) since the DOI reference is not working.

I think the reference for the above statement should be changed to Calhoun's 1962 publication.
