Impact of Male Takeovers on Infant Deaths, Births and Conceptions in Cebus capucinus at Santa Rosa, Costa Rica (2003, background): “As Janson (2000) noted, the old debate about whether infanticide by male primates is adaptive has shifted to a consideration of the consequences of such behavior for female fitness and female counterstrategies.”
A comparative study of conflict resolution in macaques: insights into the nature of trait covariation (2008, background): “However, these models do not account for phylogenetic influences on correlated trait evolution, which may explain discrepancies between data and model predictions (Strier 1994; Janson, 2000; Kappeler & van Schaik 2002).”
Fission‐Fusion Dynamics (2008, background): “Primate socioecology is currently at an important juncture (Janson 2000).”
Socioecological influences on the reproductive success of female mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) (2007, background): “Group type (one-male versus multimale) In the absence of strong feeding competition, the FRS of some species may be more sensitive to male reproductive strategies such as infanticide (Sterck 1997; Crockett and Janson 2000; Steenbeek and van Schaik 2001).”
A complex social structure with fission–fusion properties can emerge from a simple foraging model (2005, unknown): “However, when confronted with the 30 wide variation in social structure existing among different taxa and even among populations 31 of the same species, socioecological theory remains limited in its explanatory power 32 (Janson 2000; DiFiore et al. in preparation).”
Competition for Resources and Its Behavioral Consequences Among Female Primates (2002, background): “For example, birth rates did not vary significantly with group size in red howlers (Crockett and Janson, 2000) because infanticide was more frequent in large groups.”
Evolution of Primate Social Systems (2002, background): “Both ethical and practical problems, having to do with slow reproductive rates or small sample size, explain this limitation (Janson, 2000).”
