The use of intentional language in biology is controversial. It has been commonly applied by researchers in behavioral ecology, who have not shied away from employing agential thinking or even anthropomorphisms, but has been rarer among res...
Common permutation methods in animal social network analysis do not control for non-independence [0.03%]
动物社交网络分析中的常见排列方法无法控制非独立性问题

Jordan D A Hart et al.
The non-independence of social network data is a cause for concern among behavioural ecologists conducting social network analysis. This has led to the adoption of several permutation-based methods for testing common hypotheses. One of the ...
Impact of predator model presentation paradigms on titi monkey alarm sequences [0.03%]

Abstract: Predator presentation experiments are widely used to investigate animal alarm vocalizations. They usually involve presentations of predator models or playbacks of predator calls, but it remains unclear whether t...

Abstract: Studying the social behaviour of small or cryptic species often relies on constructing networks from sparse point-based observations of individuals (e.g. live trapping data). A common approach assumes that indiv...
From collocations to call-ocations: using linguistic methods to quantify animal call combinations [0.03%]
从词汇搭配到呼叫搭配：利用语言学方法量化动物叫声组合

Alexandra B Bosshard et al.
Abstract: Emerging data in a range of non-human animal species have highlighted a latent ability to combine certain pre-existing calls together into larger structures. Currently, however, the quantification of context-spe...
Female-limited X chromosome evolution reveals that lifespan is mainly modulated by interlocus rather than intralocus sexual conflict [0.03%]
限雌性X染色体的进化表明寿命主要是由基因位点间的性别冲突而不是基因位点内的性别冲突调节的

Katrine K Lund-Hansen et al.
Abstract: Sexual dimorphism in somatic investment may be shaped by two distinct forms of sexual conflict; under intralocus sexual conflict (IASC), males and females have different optimal levels of somatic investment but ...

Abstract: Despite strong selective pressures inherent in competition for mates, in species with non-resource-based mating systems males commonly engage in non-agonistic interactions with same-sex visitors at display arena...
Investigating associations between nematode infection and three measures of sociality in Asian elephants [0.03%]

Carly L Lynsdale et al.
Abstract: Frequent social interactions, proximity to conspecifics, and group density are main drivers of infections and parasite transmissions. However, recent theoretical and empirical studies suggest that the health ben...

Animal species differ considerably in longevity. Among mammals, short-lived species such as shrews have a maximum lifespan of about a year, whereas long-lived species such as whales can live for more than two centuries. Because of their slo...
