# behav: group’s dominance hierarchy seems statistically non-linear (among chimps)

<< Through agonistic networks, [AA] found that group members reciprocally exhibited agonism, and the group’s dominance hierarchy was statistically non-linear. One chimpanzee emerged as the most dominant through agonism but was least connected to other group members across affiliative networks.  [AA] results indicate that the conventional methods used to calculate individuals' dominance rank may be inadequate to wholly depict a group's social relationships in captive sanctuary populations >>
