Date Issued:: 1976
Abstract/Description:: Florida Technological University College of Social Sciences Thesis; Man's perception of his personal space can be compared to a basic concept in the study of animal behavior, territoriality, defined by Hall as "behavior" by which an organism characteristically lays claim to an area and defends it against members of its own species. (1966, p. 7) Territoriality was first described in 1920 by the English ornithologist H. E. Howard. He recognized events that had been noted by naturalists as far back as the seventeenth century as manifestations of territoriality (Hall, 1966).
