Table 3 Summary of the best supported NBDA models of reversal learning with social transmission following the observed (models with ∆AIC < 2) or homogeneous network, or with asocial learning only.
From: Social transmission in the wild can reduce predation pressure on novel prey signals
Model: Equal/different asocial and social learning rates between the species | Transmission rate from adults/juveniles | Transmission rate from conspecifics/heterospecifics | AICc | ∆AICc | Social transmission parameter (s)a |
