Behaviourally specific preferred associations in bottlenose dolphins, Tursiops spp. (2005, background): “A society can be defined as a set of conspecifics that interact more regularly with one another than with members of other societies (Struhsaker 1969; Kappeler and van Schaik 2002 ).”
Organization of Group Members at Departure Is Driven by Social Structure in Macaca (2008, methodology): “Despite developments of the methodology in sociology (Cummins 2000; Freeman 1992), researchers have rarely applied network metrics in studies of nonhuman societies (Croft et al. 2005; Krause et al. 2007; Lusseau et al. 2006 ;W eyet al. 2008; Whitehead 1997; Wittemeyer et al. 2005) and even less in p”

The socioecology of elephants: analysis of the processes creating multitiered social structures (2005, background): “The socioecological hypothesis serves as a framework for studies of this particular relationship between ecological factors and social behaviour (Emlen & Oring 1977; Vehrencamp 1983; Terborgh & Janson 1986; Emlen 1995; Kappeler & van Schaik 2002 ).”
The social dynamics of southern resident killer whales and conservation implications for this endangered population (2009, background): “Social structure can be defined by the pattern of relationships between individuals (Hinde 1976; Whitehead & Dufault 1999; Kappeler & van Schaik 2002 ).”
The genetic population structure of the gray mouse lemur (Microcebus murinus), a basal primate from Madagascar (2002, background): “The majority of prosimians exhibits a solitary social system, however, which is characterized by solitary foraging at night and the formation of sleeping groups with conspecifics during the day (Sterling et al. 2000; Kappeler and van Schaik 2002 ), a type of social system also found among several o”
Ranging behavior of the mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Uganda: a test of the ecological constraints model (2005, background): “One of the main goals of primate behavioral ecology is to determine the ecological factors that influence the size and structure of social groups (Clutton-Brock and Harvey 1977; Terborgh 1983; van Schaik 1983; Sterck et al. 1997; Chapman and Chapman 2000a; Kappeler and van Schaik 2002 ).”
Association networks in spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi) (2009, background): “Recently highlighted by Aureli et al. (2008) as one of the hallmarks of fission–fusion dynamics, this “temporal patterning” of social interactions and relationships was considered by Hinde (1976) as one of the essential elements of a species' social structure (cf. Kappeler and van Schaik 2002 ).”
Nonrandom association patterns at northern long- eared bat maternity roosts (2007, background): “Kappeler and van Schaik (2002) suggest that societies can be characterized by three basic elements: social organization, social structure, and mating system.”
