Table 1.

Model selection using single-term deletions with a likelihood ratio test based (LRT) backward selection. Selected model based on the likelihood ratio test is indicated in bold. Variables: Capture = probability of capture; OrdS = order of sightings; Nobs = number of observations; Deg = network degree; Betw = network betweenness; Sex = sex; Size = size. AIC, Akaike information criterion; logLik, log likelihood.
