为了解释灵长类社会系统的变化,社会生态学集中在生态因素的作用,以解释女性协会和关系,并在交配机会的时空分布,以解释男性协会和关系。虽然这种方法相当成功,但它忽视了男女之间的联系和关系,也忽视了男性行为改变社会制度其他方面的可能性。在本文中,生态的方法是补充考虑的社会因素,发现限制健身,即由男性杀。杀婴风险被认为是选择了男性和女性的协会和关系,并在某些情况下有修改的女性和女性的关系。也有人假设,黑猩猩等物种选择了不寻常的雄性结合。最后,它可能对群体间关系的影响进行了研究。这些发现表明,在塑造灵长类社会系统方面,杀蝗与生态因素具有同等重要性,它们可能以有时复杂的方式相互作用
In order to explain the variation in primate social systems, socio-ecology has focussed on the role of ecological factors to explain female associations and relationship and on the spatio-temporal distribution of mating opportunities to explain male associations and relationships. While this apporach has been quite successful, it ignores male-female associations and relationships and ignores the possibility that male behaviour modifies other aspects of the social system. In this paper, the ecological approach is complemented by consideration of a social factor found to limit fitness, namely infanticide by males. Infanticide risk is proposed to have selected for male-female associations and relationships and to have modified female-female relationships in some cases. It is also hypothetized to have selected for the unusual male bonding by species such as chimpanzees. Finally, its possible impact on between-group relations is examined. The findings suggest that infanticide is of equal importance to ecological factors, with which it may interact in sometimes complex way, in shaping primate social systems
