Coordination of Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) in a Stag Hunt Game (2011, background): “This is in line with simulation models showing that very simple individual rules of thumb can be sufficient to generate seemingly complex patterns of social behavior (Conradt and Roper 2009; Rands et al. 2003).”
Covariation between personalities and individual differences in coping with stress: Converging evidence and hypotheses (2010, background): “Several authors have suggested that stable individual differences in behaviour are related to underlying differences in state, for example the body size or health of an individual (e.g. Rands et al., 2003; Dall et al., 2004; McElreath and Strimling, 2006; Stamps, 2007; Biro and Stamps, 2008).”

Graded leadership by dominant animals in a herd of female beef cattle on pasture (2010, background): “For instance, an initiator of a particular decision may be the one with the strongest need for change at the time (Rands et al. 2003).”
All together now: behavioural synchrony in baboons. (2009, background): “In such cases, the extent of behavioural synchronization at any given moment is most likely to reflect changes in the costs and benefits of realizing this activity synchrony (Rands et al. 2003, 2008).”
Social relationships and reproductive state influence leadership roles in movements of plains zebra, Equus burchellii (2007, neutral): “The initiator of a particular decision may be the one with the strongest need for change at that time (Rands et al. 2003).”
Collective behavior in road crossing pedestrians: the role of social information (2010, background): “Furthermore, these interindividual interactions can theoretically cause complex and potentially adaptive self-organized collective patterns (Parrish and Edelstein-Keshet 1999) such as activity synchrony (Conradt and Roper 2000; Rands et al. 2003) and effective conflict resolution (Couzin et al.”
Negotiation over offspring care?--a positive response to partner-provisioning rate in great tits (2006, neutral): “Although very few studies have investigated specific patterns of food delivery (but see Rands et al., 2003), coordination between parents has been found in some studies of seabirds, for example little shearwaters (Puffinus assimilis), which often have very long feeding trips (Booth et al., 2000).”
