摘要: Abstract When contingency tables of data on sequences, social relationships, feeding, habitat use, or other behaviour exhibit significant associations between variables, ethologists may analyse the residuals in table order to test more precise hypotheses about found. This paper critically evaluates currently used and potentially available statistical methods for performing such tests. Specific examples use are given recommendations made.
