This theory of Marko and Neuburger is a generalization of Shannon's information theory and allows the description of the dominance relations of a two-partner situation. In the present case the observed behavioural sequences nearly correspond to Markoff chains of the 4th order. Two typical strategies regarding the exercise of dominance were observed during a change in dominance between two animals. A comparison with respective findings on social psychology is possible.","type_name":"Journal Article","journal_abbreviation":null,"pmid":null,"info_url":"https:\/\/bio.acousti.ca\/node\/58246"}]}
