• Report Cryptic Plasticity Underlies a Major Evolutionary Transition (2010, methodology): “To compare observed reproductive skew with that expected if B2 offspring are assigned randomly among the adult females at each nest, we calculated the recommended B index using Skew Calculator 2003 software [14].”
• Comparative tests of reproductive skew in male primates: the roles of demographic factors and incomplete control (2006, unknown): “First, we used binomial skew index (hereafter B index; Nonacs 2000, 2003).”
