• Male chimpanzees form enduring and equitable social bonds (2009, unknown): “In this context, male chimpanzees provide an apt test case as they maintain strong bonds that are commonly assumed to endure over long periods (e.g. Goodall 1986; Muller & Mitani 2005).”
• Chimpanzee helping in collaborative and noncollaborative contexts (2010, background): “In both naturalistic and experimental situations, chimpanzees engage in mutualistic collaborative activities relatively readily (see Muller & Mitani 2005; Melis et al. 2009).”
• Do chimpanzees reciprocate received favours (2008, background): “Male chimpanzees cooperate during hunting episodes, sharing meat, defending territories against other communities and during intragroup coalitionary aggression (Muller & Mitani 2005).”
• Association patterns among wild chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii) reflect sex differences in cooperation (2008, unknown): “Finally, our results add to the growing body of data suggesting that kinship is not the only factor promoting cooperation among male chimpanzees (Muller and Mitani 2005; Langergraber et al. 2007).”
• Human Culture in Evolutionary Perspective (2010, background): “In chimpanzees, the “commodities” exchanged are such things as grooming, support in fights, sex, and meat, with most of the activity involving males (Muller & Mitani, 2005 ).”
• Social personality traits in chimpanzees: temporal stability and structure of behaviourally assessed personality traits in three captive populations (2011, unknown): “Chimpanzee males compete heavily over rank position and reproduction, resulting in an intricate network of relationships managed by conflict, grooming and cooperation (Muller and Mitani 2005; Watts 2000).”
• Pant hoot chorusing and social bonds in male chimpanzees (2013, background): “As in other primates, both reciprocated grooming and mutual support in agonistic interactions are widely considered to reflect strong social bonds (Hemelrijk & Ek 1991; Muller & Mitani 2005; Mitani 2009).”
• Vocal, gestural and locomotor responses of wild chimpanzees to familiar and unfamiliar intruders: A playback study (2009, unknown): “…chimpanzees can respondveryaggressively to individuals thatarenotmembersof their own community (Kawanaka & Nishida 1974; Goodall 1986; Boesch & Boesch-Achermann 2000; Wilson & Wrangham 2003; Wilson et al. 2004; Mitani and Watts, 2005; Muller & Mitani 2005; Watts et al. 2006; Boesch et al. 2008).”
• Economic Profitability of Social Predation Among Wild Chimpanzees: Individual Variation Promotes Cooperation (2008, background): “Qualitatively, however, descriptions of hunting at other sites imply that as party size increases, a greater proportion of the party hunts ( Muller & Mitani 2005 ).”
• The ontogeny of human prosociality: behavioral experiments with children aged 3 to 8 (2012, background): “…discussed here and allow this body of work to be integrated with the extensive literature on prosocial and cooperative behavior in wild chimpanzees (Boesch & Boesch, 1989; Nishida, Hasegawa, Hayaki, Takahata, & Uehara, 1992; Watts & Mitani, 2001; Muller & Mitani, 2005; Gilby, 2006; Mitani, 2006).”
• Chimpanzees coordinate in a negotiation game (2009, background): “One of humans' two closest primate relatives, chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), engage in a wide variety of cooperative activities such as mutual grooming, group hunting, and intra- and intergroup coalitionary behavior (Boesch & Boesch-Achermann, 2000; deWaal, 1982; Muller & Mitani, 2005).”
