Figure 3. Predicted interaction score (recipient-aggressor rank difference) of aggressive interactions (n=6871) as a function of the explanatory variables of the linear mixed effects model with a significant effect: number of adult males in the group, number of adult females in the group and aggressor’s reproductive state (Cycl: cycling; P_n: nth pregnancy trimester; Lact: lactating).

Shaded areas and whiskers show 95% confidence intervals. We created the figure using R package effects (Fox et al., 2022). Positive scores represented aggression up and negative scores represented aggression down the hierarchy.
