A prominent hypothesis states that coalitions may be under cognitive constraints, but this idea is debated and remains to be tested empirically. In this study, we evaluate the cognitive constraint hypothesis against 3 alternative hypotheses that stress the role of demography, substrate use, and resource competition, for the evolution of male coalitions. A comparative analysis of a unique data set of 86 multimale multifemale groups of 38 nonhuman primate species from all major radiations revealed no evolutionary association of male coalition frequency with cognitive capacity (as indexed by neocortex ratio and endocranial volume). The observed variation was best explained by demography and resource competition in that male coalitions were more likely to occur in species characterized by larger male groups and reduced levels of contest competition (after controlling for phylogeny). These findings suggest that constraints imposed by the socioecological setting, rather than cognition, explain best why some primate species evolved customary coalitionary behavior while others did not. This study presents the first empirical evidence against the long-standing view that cognitive abilities may impose a limit on the use of coalitions in animals."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1093/beheco/aru054"],["dc.identifier.gro","3151482"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/8288"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.relation.issn","1045-2249"],["dc.title","Socioecology, but not cognition, predicts male coalitions across primates"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Field biologists and ethologists have accumulated a vast amount of data on coalition and alliance formation, while theoretical biologists have developed modelling approaches. With the accumulation of empirical data and sophisticated theory, we are now potentially able to answer a host of questions about how coalitions emerge and are maintained in a population over time, and how the psychology of this type of cooperation evolved. Progress can only be achieved, however, by effectively bridging the communication gap that currently exists between empiricists and theoreticians. In this paper, we aim to do so by asking three questions: (1) What are the primary questions addressed by theoreticians interested in coalition formation, and what are the main building blocks of their models? (2) Do empirical observations support the assumptions of current models, and if not, how can we improve this situation? (3) Has theoretical work led to a better understanding of coalition formation, and what are the most profitable lines of inquiry for the future? Our overarching goal is to promote the integration of theoretical and field biology by motivating empirical scientists to collect data on aspects of coalition formation that are currently poorly quantified and to encourage theoreticians to develop a comprehensive theory of coalition formation that is testable under real-world conditions."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1163/1568539X-00003241"],["dc.identifier.isi","000347860500001"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/38578"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Brill Academic Publishers"],["dc.relation.issn","1568-539X"],["dc.relation.issn","0005-7959"],["dc.title","Coalitions in theory and reality: a review of pertinent variables and processes"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Male coalition formation can be an alternative reproductive strategy to one-on-one competition to maximize male reproductive success. Here we focus on age as a state variable to explain within-group variation in individual propensity to form coalitions against other group members. We specifically test the prediction that males conditionally switch from a solo strategy for achievement of high mating success to a cooperative strategy after reaching post-prime age in male Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus). We combined new observations with data collected in 2006 and 2008 on the same individuals from one captive group living in semi-natural conditions at Affenberg Salem, Germany, and found that in all years males between 5 and 13 years formed significantly fewer coalitions than males 14 years and older (post-prime). More importantly, we found those males that aged into the post-prime phase to have switched their reproductive strategy and to form significantly more coalitions in 2014 compared to 2008. These first longitudinal data together with earlier cross-sectional analyses in this and other primate species suggest that group-level measures of coalition propensity may be strongly affected by the age composition of groups and that male coalition formation can be a conditional reproductive strategy."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.5194/pb-4-1-2017"],["dc.identifier.gro","3151484"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/8290"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.relation.issn","2363-4715"],["dc.title","Age-dependent change of coalitionary strategy in male Barbary macaques"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
