(a) Mean degree (average number of ties connected to a node) given in its normalized version, (b) relative reciprocity between a network and its transposed form (row-wise matrix correlations; 10 000 permutations) and (c) constant homophily models according to membership in discrete pair bonds (10 000 permutations); see text for definitions. Periods are: non-breeding I (n = 14); non-breeding II (n = 10); pre-breeding (n = 12); post-fledging parental care (n = 21).
juveniles omitted from the model; n = 14.
Significant results are given in bold:
p ≤ 0.05;
p ≤ 0.01;
p ≤ 0.001.
