Table III.
Inconsistencies between rankings derived by using Elo-rating under different assumptions and the directionality of pant-grunt vocalisations, using data from male chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) of the Sonso community, Budongo Forest, Uganda, collected between October 2003 and August 2004
Model | Analysis | No. of inconsistencies (no. of dyads) | Difference in Elo-rating (mean ± SD) |
---|---|---|---|
a | Unmodified (Neumann et al. 2011) | 14 (9) | 154.64 ± 103.60 |
b | Prior historya with linear relationship | 2 (2) | 103.00 ± 97.58 |
c | Prior historya with negative exponential | 3 (3) | 93.33 ± 32.62 |
d, e | Prior historyb with negative exponential + intensity of aggression (variable K) | 1 (1) | 139.00 |
Difference in Elo-rating is the mean of the differences between members of dyads where ranks were inconsistent with the direction of pant-grunting
