• Foraging nine-spined sticklebacks prefer to rely on public information over simpler social cues (2005, background): “Moreover, several empirical studies on non-human animals could be reinterpreted in terms of informational cascades (Bates and Chappell, 2002; Laland and Williams, 1998; Pomiankowski, 1990; Schlupp et al., 1994; Witte and Noltemeier, 2002).”
• Mate Choice Copying and Nonindependent Mate Choice: A Critical Review (2011, background): “…choice copying constitutes a social, and consequently ‘non-genetic’ influence on mate choice, while independent mate choice preferences constitute ‘genetic’ and consequently non-social influences on mate choice (e.g. Dugatkin 1996b, 1998, Applebaum & Cruz 2000, Witte & Noltemeier 2002, Witte 2006).”
• From eavesdropping on performance to copying the behavior of others: a review of public information use (2007, unknown): “…sees that male mate with another female (Gibson and Höglund 1992; Dugatkin and Godin 1992, 1993; Schlupp et al. 1994; Briggs et al. 1996; Grant and Green 1996; Schlupp and Ryan 1997; Dugatkin 1998; Witte and Ryan 1998, 2002; Galef and White 1998; White and Galef 2000; Witte and Noltemeier 2002).”
• Inclusive heritability: combining genetic and non-genetic information to study animal behavior and culture (2010, unknown): “For instance, studies of mate choice copying (Galef and White 1998, Witte and Noltemeier 2002), or sexual imprinting (Balakrishnan and Sorenson 2006, Brodin and Haas 2006, Burley 2006, Grant and Grant 2008, Hansen et al. 2008, Schielzeth et al. 2008, Tramm and Servedio 2008) have identified a…”
