The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The biological principles of swarm intelligence (2007, background): “…systems share similar collective properties such as colonies of bacteria or amoeba (Ben-Jacob et al. 1994, 2000), fish schools (Grünbaum et al. 2005; Parrish et al. 2002), bird flocks (Reynolds 1987), sheep herds (Gautrais et al. 2007) or even crowds of human beings (Helbing et al. 2001).”
Where Next? Group Coordination and Collective Decision Making by Primates (2011, background): “This has also been termed social facilitation (Tolman 1964; Zajonc 1965) or response facilitation (Byrne 1994), and is described in a variety of social species from ants to sheep (Camazine et al. 2003; Couzin and Krause 2003; Detrain and Deneubourg 2006; Gautrais et al. 2007; Sumpter 2006).”
Multi-State Models for Panel Data: The msm Package for R (2011, methodology): “2006), zoology (Gautrais et al. 2007) and econometrics (Rummel 2009).”
Selective mimetism at departure in collective movements of Macaca tonkeana: an experimental and theoretical approach (2009, background): “The log gradient of this exponential distribution was the inverse of the mean departure latency of the first departing individual and corresponded to the departure probability of the first individual j01 (equation 1a; Amé et al. 2006; Meunier et al. 2006; Gautrais et al. 2007).”
