朋友的朋友关系,或人与人之间的间接联系,影响我们的健康,幸福,经济成功和生殖产出。与人类一样,其他动物的社会行为通常发生在一个广泛的相互关联的社会关系网络中。然而,对动物社会行为的研究往往集中在成对个体之间的联系上。随着社会网络分析的日益普及,研究人员开始超越二元关系,研究间接联系在动物社会中的作用。在这里,我提供了这些研究所发现的新知识的概述。我专注于研究,解决了社会行为的原因,即间接联系的认知和遗传基础,以及其后果,即间接联系对社会凝聚力,信息传递,文化习俗和健身的影响。从这些研究中,很明显,间接联系在动物行为中起着重要作用,尽管需要未来的研究来阐明它们的贡献。
Friend of a friend relationships, or the indirect connections between people, influence our health, well-being, financial success and reproductive output. As with humans, social behaviours in other animals often occur within a broad interconnected network of social ties. Yet studies of animal social behaviour tend to focus on associations between pairs of individuals. With the increase in popularity of social network analysis, researchers have started to look beyond the dyad to examine the role of indirect connections in animal societies. Here, I provide an overview of the new knowledge that has been uncovered by these studies. I focus on research that has addressed both the causes of social behaviours, i.e. the cognitive and genetic basis of indirect connections, as well as their consequences, i.e. the impact of indirect connections on social cohesion, information transfer, cultural practices and fitness. From these studies, it is apparent that indirect connections play an important role in animal behaviour, although future research is needed to clarify their contribution.
