Group-size and distance-to-neighbour effects on feeding and vigilance in brown-headed cowbirds (2007, background): “…2002), others suggest that nearby companions, through their presence and escape behaviour, exert a stronger influence on feeding rate and vigilance than do those further away (Lima & Zollner 1996; Stillman et al. 2000; Blumstein et al. 2001; Treves et al. 2001; Fernández-Juricic & Kacelnik 2004).”
Social recognition in sticklebacks: the role of direct experience and habitat cues (2005, background): “Preferences for animals that have a similar recent history of habitat exploitation may also be adaptive because such individuals may act as information centres with respect to the local environment ( Fernandez-Juricic and Kacelnik 2004 ).”
All together now: behavioural synchrony in baboons. (2009, result): “Given that group members may actively coordinate their synchronous behaviour at least some of the time, and that such coordination is likely to be facilitated by the monitoring of their groupmates, this finding is consistent with the idea that the acquisition of social information is mediated by nei”
Antipredator strategies of house finches: are urban habitats safe spots from predators even when humans are around? (2009, background): “However, at very close neighbor distances, individuals may pay more attention to conspecifics and copy their vigilance behavior (Fernández-Juricic and Kacelnik 2004; Fernández-Juricic et al. 2004) or may use foraging information from companions to make decisions about patch quality (Krause and Ruxto”
Avian visual system configuration and behavioural response to object approach (2009, unknown): “…seminatural conditions (including use of enclosures) have been used successfully in research examining avian social foraging and vigilance (Fernández-Juricic & Kacelnik 2004; Fernández-Juricic et al. 2004b, 2007), as well as predator detection and response (Van Der Veen & Lindström…”
