Long-term dominance relationships in female mountain gorillas: strength, stability and determinants of rank (2005, background): “While citing similar concerns about linearity measures, Isbell & Young (2002) proposed three other indicators of strong dominance relationships: a high rate of dominance interactions (cf. Sterck, 1999; Koenig, 2002), a low (<5”
Dominance rank relationships among wild female African elephants, Loxodonta africana (2006, methodology): “When this is true, as it is for elephants, both h, and to a lesser extent h0, provide inaccurate estimates of linearity, and yield misleadingly low linearity index values (e.g. Rutberg 1986; Isbell & Pruetz 1998; Isbell & Young 2002).”
A comparative study of conflict resolution in macaques: insights into the nature of trait covariation (2008, unknown): “Current socioecological models are built upon this null hypothesis (e.g. Sterck et al. 1997; Isbell & Young 2002).”
Towards an ecological solution to the folivore paradox: patch depletion as an indicator of within-group scramble competition in red colobus monkeys (Piliocolobus tephrosceles) (2005, methodology): “Because scramble competition cannot be directly observed, and foraging efficiency is difficult to measure, increasing day range with increasing group size has been used as a behavioural indicator of within-group scramble competition (Isbell 1991; Chapman et al. 1995; Janson and Goldsmith 1995; Chapm”
Hierarchical dominance structure and social organization in African elephants, Loxodonta africana (2007, background): “…among individuals and groups are typically used to assess the dominance structure of a species (van Schaik 1989; Isbell 1991; Sterck et al. 1997; Isbell & Young 2002), although such tests assume that competitive abilities define dominance relationships, simplifying recognized complexity in…”
Socioecological influences on the reproductive success of female mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) (2007, background): “Over the past few decades, conceptual models have been developed to explain the links between ecological conditions, the social systems of primates, and reproductive success of their individuals (Wrangham 1980; Isbell 1991; Sterck et al. 1997; Isbell and Young 2002; Koenig 2002).”
Greetings promote cooperation and reinforce social bonds among spotted hyaenas (2011, background): “DC is the most informative measure for comparing the strength of competition among taxonomic groups (Isbell & Pruetz 1998; Isbell & Young 2002; Archie et al. 2006a).”
Do friends help each other? Patterns of female coalition formation in wild bonobos at Wamba (2016, background): “In other species, female coalitions are generally used for female e female competition, to maintain social status or to usurp valuable food resources among females (Isbell & Young, 2002; Silk, Alberts, & Altmann, 2004; Smith et al., 2010; Sterck et al., 1997).”
Multilevel social organization and space use in reticulated giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis) (2014, background): “…organization has had a long history of investigation in behavioral ecology, and it is now understood that ecological factors, such as predation and the distribution of resource, play a crucial role in shaping social structure (Alexander 1974; Rubenstein and Wrangham 1986; Isbell and Young 2002).”
Rank-related partner choice in the fission–fusion society of the spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta) (2007, unknown): “generally consistent with those in female-bonded groups of cercopithecines (Wrangham 1980; Sterck et al. 1997; Isbell and Young 2002), suggesting that sexually dimorphic patterns of reproduction and dispersal generate sex differences in association in hyenas as they do in primates.”
The adaptive value of sociality in mammalian groups (2007, background): “For primates and many other mammals, it is generally thought that the main benefit of sociality is protection against predators and the main cost of sociality is increased competition for resources with other group members (e.g. Sterck et al. 1997; Isbell & Young 2002).”
