Table 3.

Model selection table for models with the highest support (Δi≦2) investigating calling occurrences, the number of calls per interaction bout, the three PCs, call duration, and the responses to playbacks of defensive calls manipulated in fo and call duration

Corrected Akaike Information Criterion (AICc) values, the difference between the lowest AICc value and all other AICc values (Δi), the relative likelihood, and resulting Akaike weights are presented (for the models on the playback experiment, quasi (Q) values are shown). “*” indicate main factors and their two-way interaction
