TLDR
The use of ‘shoal’ is recommended as a more helpful general term for a social group of fish (equivalent to ‘flock’ in birds), the term ‘school’ being restricted to polarized synchronized groups.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
The chameleon effect: The perception–behavior link and social interaction.
Tanya L. Chartrand,John A. Bargh +1 more
TL;DR: The authors suggest that the mechanism involved is the perception-behavior link, the recently documented finding that the mere perception of another's behavior automatically increases the likelihood of engaging in that behavior oneself.
Book ChapterDOI
Functions of Shoaling Behaviour in Teleosts
TL;DR: Predators and food are the keys to understanding fish shoals; synchronised co-operation defeats predators, and optimal food gathering in shoals reflects a shifting balance between joining, competing in, or leaving the group.
Book ChapterDOI
The perception–behavior expressway: Automatic effects of social perception on social behavior.
Ap Dijksterhuis,John A. Bargh +1 more
TL;DR: This chapter examines all three forms of social perception that lead directly to corresponding overt behavioral tendencies and elaborates the direct relation between perception and behavior and specifically on one consequence of this relation—namely, the imitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inferring the structure and dynamics of interactions in schooling fish
TL;DR: Comparing data from two-fish and three-fish shoals challenges the standard assumption that individual motion results from averaging responses to each neighbor considered separately and finds no evidence for explicit matching of body orientation.
Book ChapterDOI
The Biology of the Clupeoid Fishes
J.H.S. Blaxter,J.R. Hunter +1 more
TL;DR: The aim of this chapter is to describe the present status of knowledge on the behavior and physiology of clupeoids with particular reference to their ecology.

The analysis of contingency tables
TL;DR: Contingency tables and the chi-square test as mentioned in this paper are two types of contingency tables, i.e., 2 x 2 and r x c. Contingency table.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydromechanics of Fish Schooling
TL;DR: Hydrodynamical effects appear to be important to obligate schooling species, and the endurance of the fish is found to be increased twice to six times when in schools.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experiments on whether schooling by their prey affects the hunting behaviour of cephalopods and fish predators
St S. R. J. Neill,J. M. Cullen +1 more
TL;DR: The experiments show that a shoal can provide further protection in hampering the attack of a predator and the increasing shoal size from one fish to six, to 20, decreased the success of the predators' attacks per encounter with a prey.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Analysis of Cross-Classified Data: Independence, Quasi-Independence, and Interactions in Contingency Tables with or without Missing Entries
TL;DR: The analysis of cross-classified data: Independence, quasi-independence, and Interactions in Contingency Tables with or without Missing Entries as mentioned in this paper is an example of such a model.

Flocking and feeding in the great tit parus major–an experimental study
TL;DR: It seems likely that local enhancement does occur in natural flocks, and the flocking in Great Tits is of benefit to the participants because they increase their effectiveness in finding food.
