TLDR
In this article, an index to objectively assess the stability of a dominance hierarchy is proposed, which allows visualizing dominance relationships and the detection of rank dynamics, and it allows ranking hierarchies to be computed.

Trade-offs between fighting and breeding: a social network analysis of bison male interactions.

Megan T. Wyman, +2 more
- 29 Jan 2021 - 
TL;DR: Local and global node centrality and dominance rankings were positively associated with prime-aged, heavy males with the most mating success and offspring sired, and network analysis demonstrated that they were still important to the interaction network on both a local and global scale.

Exploring greetings and leave-takings: communication during arrivals and departures by chimpanzees of the Bossou community, Guinea

Evelina D. Rodrigues, +5 more
- 17 Nov 2021 - 
TL;DR: In the Bossou chimpanzee community, the authors of as mentioned in this paper found that the occurrence and form of communication during fission and fusion events are mediated by social factors, including rank, kinship, and party size and composition.

Sociosexual behaviour in wild chimpanzees occurs in variable contexts and is frequent between same-sex partners

Aaron A. Sandel, +1 more
- 02 Feb 2021 - 
TL;DR: Although sociosexual behaviour may be less frequent in chimpanzees than in bonobos, and bonobos remain distinct in their genito-genital rubbing, the findings suggest that soci homosexual behaviour is a regular part of chimpanzee behaviour.

Consequences of a male takeover on mating skew in wild Sanje mangabeys

David Fernández
- 01 Jul 2017 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that temporary rank instability decreases high‐ranking males’ ability to monopolize copulations, causing a departure from the predictions of the PoA.

Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) tolerate some degree of inequity while cooperating but refuse to donate effort for nothing.

Matthew W. Campbell, +7 more
- 01 Jan 2020 - 
TL;DR: Chimpanzees therefore tolerate mild inequity, but cannot tolerate receiving nothing when others are rewarded, leading to a hierarchy of performances by condition with equity and donating effort.

Controlling the false discovery rate: a practical and powerful approach to multiple testing

Yoav Benjamini, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1995 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a different approach to problems of multiple significance testing is presented, which calls for controlling the expected proportion of falsely rejected hypotheses -the false discovery rate, which is equivalent to the FWER when all hypotheses are true but is smaller otherwise.

Observational study of behavior: sampling methods.

Jeanne Altmann
- 01 Jan 1974 - 
TL;DR: Seven major types of sampling for observational studies of social behavior have been found in the literature and the major strengths and weaknesses of each method are pointed out.

Model selection in ecology and evolution

Jerald B. Johnson, +1 more
- 01 Feb 2004 - 
TL;DR: The steps of model selection are outlined and several ways that it is now being implemented are highlighted, so that researchers in ecology and evolution will find a valuable alternative to traditional null hypothesis testing, especially when more than one hypothesis is plausible.

The influence of social hierarchy on primate health

Robert M. Sapolsky
- 29 Apr 2005 - 
TL;DR: Whether it is high- or low-ranking animals that are most stressed in a dominance hierarchy turns out to vary as a function of the social organization in different species and populations are considered.

The logical stag: adaptive aspects of fighting in red deer ( Cervus elaphus L.)

Tim H. Clutton-Brock, +3 more
- 01 Feb 1979 - 
TL;DR: For red deer stags, up to 6% of rutting stags are permanently injured each year, while fighting success and reproductive success are closely related, within age groups as well as across them as discussed by the authors.
