The effect of stimulus compatibility, absolute rank difference, eigenvector centrality (i.e. integration in the affiliative social network), DGI and DSI (i.e. bond strength) with a given partner on an individual’s strength of co-representation (i.e. joint Simon effect; errors in incompatible vs. compatible trials) in (a) the Tonkean macaques (n = 7) and (b) the brown capuchins (n = 6). Parameter estimates, standard errors, 95% confidence intervals (CI), odds ratios (OR) and statistical significance are obtained from generalized linear mixed effect models. Significant effects are indicated with p-values in italics
