摘要: Abstract The common practice of ranking a group animals in the closest possible order to linear dominance hierarchy assumes that among those is generally transitive. In fact, analysis groups which relationships are random shows this method has surprisingly high probability producing an apparently or near-linear by chance. As such, existence transitive should be tested before it used ranking. A suitable statistical test described here. Chance may also contribute appearance hierarchies based on other factors.
