Potential banana skins in animal social network analysis (2009, methodology): “2006) and Trinidadian guppies (Poecilia reticulata) (Croft et al. 2006).”
Social network correlates of food availability in an endangered population of killer whales, Orcinus orca (2012, unknown): “…to investigate such social connectivity in populations provides us with quantitative metrics to describe the social structure at different levels of organization from the individual up to the whole population (Lusseau 2003, 2007; Lusseau & Newman 2004; Croft et al. 2006, 2008; Madden et al. 2009).”
Effect of gyrodactylid ectoparasites on host behaviour and social network structure in guppies Poecilia reticulata (2011, methodology): “Previous work using this method has demonstrated that fish show normal behavioural patterns under these observation conditions (e.g. Croft et al. 2006; Darden et al. 2009).”
Social behaviour in sharks and rays: analysis, patterns and implications for conservation (2012, background): “…and potentially damaging multiple mating events is a commonly hypothesized mechanistic driver of single-sex, female refuging behaviour in sharks (Economakis and Lobel 1998; Sims et al. 2001) and sexually segregated schooling behaviour in teleost fish (Croft et al. 2006a; Darden and Croft 2008).”
Cooperating to compete: altruism, sexual selection and causes of male reproductive cooperation (2014, unknown): “Accordingly, social network analysis has been used to explore how relations well beyond the dyadic level influence social relationships (Croft et al., 2006), including maleemale cooperation (McDonald, 2007).”
Network structure is related to social conflict in a cooperatively breeding fish (2013, unknown): “We determined the direction of the strongest relationship among groups, and subtracted the contribution of groups with the opposite relationship from the combined test statistic, and the resultant overall P value (see also Croft et al. 2006).”
To pace or not to pace? A review of what abnormal repetitive behavior tells us about zoo animal management (2017, background): “Shoaling behavior may provide opportunities for social learning, as demonstrated in guppies (Poecilia reticulata) (Laland and Williams, 1997; Swaney et al., 2001; Croft et al., 2006), and therefore provide opportunities for enhanced behavioral repertoires.”
Social network theory: new insights and issues for behavioral ecologists (2009, methodology): “Croft et al. (2006) tested this idea using predator inspection in guppies (Poecilia reticulata).”
Shark personalities? Repeatability of social network traits in a widely distributed predatory fish (2014, background): “It has been shown through experimentation using teleost fishes that the ecological environment experienced by individuals influences the social interactions of gregarious species through the direct (Croft et al. 2006; Orpwood et al. 2008) and indirect effects of predation (Croft et al. 2003).”
Behavioural trait assortment in a social network: patterns and implications (2009, background): “…work has demonstrated that pairs of 357 individuals that form stable social associations are more likely to engage in co-operative 358 predator inspection behaviour together (Croft et al. 2006a) and the results presented here 359 demonstrate that they have similar predator inspection tendencies.”
Animal social networks: an introduction (2009, background): “Examples so far in this area include the work by Croft et al. (2006) on guppies and the comparison of two closely related ungulate species by Sundaresan et al. (2007).”
The effects of early and adult social environment on zebrafish (Danio rerio) behavior (2007, background): “Many fish can identify individuals and kin in shoals (e.g., Croft et al. 2006; Behrmann-Godel et al. 2006; but see Russell et al. 2004; Kolm et al. 2005) and can exhibit less aggression to kin or familiar individuals (e.g., Brown and Brown 1993a, b).”
Social network analysis of animal behaviour : a promising tool for the study of sociality (2008, background): “Guppies, Poecilia reticulate, had small-world networks, and the network structure predicted patterns of cooperation (Croft et al. 2004, 2006).”
