Summary of the GAM analyses on binary data to test the effect of note duration and note frequency on male reaction to the playback of synthetic calls in five frog species

Species n DE, % Predictor df Deviance P
Am. hahneli 57 16.2 Peak frequency −2.9 −6.23 0.0925
Note duration −3.0 −10.9 0.0118
Am. picta 31 20.9 Peak frequency −3.1 −6.40 0.0974
Note duration −2.8 −5.45 0.1243
Am. trivittata 51 33.2 Peak frequency −0.6 −4.6 0.0148
Note duration −4.3 −19.0 0.0011
Allobates sp. 1 51 36.8 Peak frequency −3.5 −17.4 0.0010
Note duration −3.0 −11.9 0.0075
A. femoralis 63 43.8 Peak frequency −3.0 −18.6 0.0003
Note duration −3.5 −19.1 0.0004

The ability of the model to predict the outcome of the playback experiments is expressed as the percentage of deviation explained (DE).
