Association patterns among wild chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii) reflect sex differences in cooperation (2008, unknown): “Such behavior is facilitated by preferential association among close kin and has repeatedly been documented, particularly in species with a matrilineal dominance hierarchy (e.g., female savannah baboons, Papio cynocephalus ( Silk et al. 2006a ), see Kapsalis (2003) for review).”
The benefits of social capital: close social bonds among female baboons enhance offspring survival (2009, background): “For consistency with Silk et al. (2006b), we allowed a 1-year gap between consecutive years.”
Female bisexual kinship ties maintain social cohesion in a dolphin network (2010, background): “In several long-lived social species, age has also been identified as a predictor of sociality, hierarchical rank and/or structure of associations (Hauser & Tyrrell 1984; McComb et al. 2001; Widdig et al. 2001; Corr 2003; Silk et al. 2006b; Evans & Harris 2008; Fraser et al. 2008).”
Male chimpanzees form enduring and equitable social bonds (2009, unknown): “Nevertheless, observations now suggest that female monkeys preferentially associate with their paternal sisters and that male baboons selectively aid their own infants (Widdig et al. 2001; Smith et al. 2003; Buchan et al. 2003).”
Chapter 2 Reciprocal Altruism in Primates (2009, background): “…primates show a weaker time‐match between grooming given and received when measured within a single bout or day than when measured over several months, while Gilby and Wrangham (2008), Mitani (2009), and Silk et al. (2006) provided evidence for the long‐term stability of primate social preferences.”
Chimps of a feather sit together: chimpanzee friendships are based on homophily in personality (2014, background): “260 Unfortunately, we could not test the potentially confounding factor of 261 dominance hierarchy (Silk et al., 2006; 2010a; 2012), because an absence of formal 262 submission signals among females in these groups prevented a reliable assessment of 263 the dominance hierarchy.”
Sociality of the dispersing sex: The nature of social bonds in West African female chimpanzees, Pan troglodytes (2009, unknown): “If these dyadic preferences persisted for at least 3 of 4 consecutive years (see also Silk et al. 2006b) we termed such dyads long-term association partners.”
Strong and consistent social bonds enhance the longevity of female baboons. (2010, background): “Previous work indicates that pairs of female baboons that have the most equitable grooming relationships also have the strongest and most enduring social bonds [8].”
Social dynamics among females and their influence on social structure in an East African chimpanzee community (2013, unknown): “…and are accordingly commonly used to meaningfully evaluate social bonds (e.g. female chimpanzees, P. t. verus: Lehmann& Boesch 2009; male chimpanzees, P. t. schweinfurthii: Newton-Fisher 2002; whitefaced capuchins, Cebus capucinus: Perry 1996; female baboons, Papio cynocephalus: Silk et al. 2006).”
Message ‘scent’: lemurs detect the genetic relatedness and quality of conspecifics via olfactory cues (2010, background): “Nepotism between unfamiliar relatives has been demonstrated in several anthropoid primate species (Widdig et al. 2001; Silk et al. 2006a, b; Charpentier et al. 2007; reviewed in Widdig 2007).”
Ecological, social, and reproductive factors shape producer–scrounger dynamics in baboons (2009, background): “The distribution of these scores was skewed to the left, comparable to that found by Silk, Alberts, and Altmann (2006) and Silk, Altmann, and Alberts (2006) for a similar index that combined grooming strength with patterns of spatial proximity.”
Social relationships among adult female baboons (papio cynocephalus) I. Variation in the strength of social bonds (2006, background): “The social lives of female baboons revolve around a tight core of close associates with whom they form stable and equitable relationships (Silk et al. 2006).”
