From: Social resource foraging is guided by the principles of the Marginal Value Theorem
Simulation of optimal social foraging strategy based on MVT. (a) Mean rate of fixation to the image in the 15-s image-viewing period across all trials (see Methods) (b) Social information intake function g(t) based on looking behavior. Plotted at each x-coordinate is the cumulative sum of fixations up to that time point, normalized by the number of fixations at that time point. (c) Social information intake rate E n as a function of time in patch across travel times (1.0–7.0s). The black line indicates the maximum social value intake rate per travel time.
