已经提出了几个模型来解释白天活动的灵长类物种之间存在的雌性社会关系的差异。虽然它们之间有相似之处,特别是在群体内女性之间争斗关系的生态原因方面,但它们的差异在测试哪种模型最准确地反映现实世界时最有用。这些问题包括竞争是否是群体生活的一种不可避免的成本,以及女性交友是否是分散成本或与女性亲属结成联盟的好处的结果。我们详细讨论了这些相似之处和不同之处,并试图将模型的不同视图集成到一些指导方针中,以用于模型之间的测试,这将导致下一代模型。
Several models have been proposed to explain the variation that exists in female social relationships among diurnal primate species. While there are similarities among them, notably in the ecological cause of agonistic relationships among females within groups, their differences are most useful in testing which of the models most accurately reflects the real world. These include the question of whether competition is an inevitable cost of living in groups and whether female philopatry is a consequence of the costs of dispersal or the benefits of forming coalitions with female kin. We discuss in detail these similarities and differences, and attempt to integrate the models' divergent views into some guidelines for use in testing between models that will lead to the next generation of models.
