Increasing Animal Cognition Research in Zoos

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors aim to increase the understanding and subsequent uptake of animal cognition research in zoos, by transparently outlining the main benefits and challenges associated with zoo-based cognitive research, which are subject-based and human-based.

Fear generalization and behavioral responses to multiple dangers.

TL;DR: For example, this paper found that fear of one danger is correlated with fear of other dangers (e.g., humans, pathogens, moving vehicles, or fire) across diverse taxa.

Neophobia and innovation in Critically Endangered Bali myna, <i>Leucopsar rothschildi</i>

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors found effects of condition and presence of heterospecifics, including longer latencies to touch familiar food in presence than absence of novel items, and between problem-solving tasks.

A comparative study of mirror self-recognition in three corvid species

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors compare the mirror responses of common ravens and azurewinged magpies in the mark test with carrion crows, and show interspecies differences in the approach of and response to the mirror during the mirror exposure phase of the experiment as well as in the subsequent mark test.

Testing for phylogenetic signal in comparative data: behavioral traits are more labile.

TL;DR: Analysis of variance of log K for all 121 traits indicated that behavioral traits exhibit lower signal than body size, morphological, life-history, or physiological traits, and this work presents new methods for continuous-valued characters that can be implemented with either phylogenetically independent contrasts or generalized least-squares models.

Repeatability for Gaussian and non-Gaussian data: a practical guide for biologists.

TL;DR: Two types of repeatability (ordinary repeatability and extrapolated repeatability) are compared in relation to narrow‐sense heritability and two methods for calculating standard errors, confidence intervals and statistical significance are addressed.

A farewell to Bonferroni: the problems of low statistical power and publication bias

TL;DR: The meta-analysis on statistical power by Jennions and Moller (2003) revealed that, in the field of behavioral ecology and animal behavior, statistical power of less than 20% to detect a small effect and power of more than 50% to detects a medium effect existed.

TimeTree: A Resource for Timelines, Timetrees, and Divergence Times.

TL;DR: A major expansion of the TimeTree resource is reported, which more than triples the number of species and more thanTriple thenumber of studies assembled, which will lead to broader and better understanding of the interplay of the change in the biosphere with the diversity of species on Earth.

Moving to a World Beyond “p < 0.05”

TL;DR: Some of you exploring this special issue of The American Statistician might be wondering if it’s a scolding from pedantic statisticians lecturing you about what not to do with p-values, without offering any real ideas of what to do about the very hard problem of separating signal from noise in data.
