However, to our surprise we found none (we use the method of independent contrasts). Instead, we confirm the self- organisationhypothesis:ourmodelbasedonthewinner-losereffectpredictsthatfemaledominanceovermalesincreases withthepercentageofmalesinthegroup.Weconfirmthispatternatseverallevelsinempiricaldata(amonggroupsofa singlespeciesandbetweenspeciesofthesamegenusandofdifferentones).Sincethewinner-losereffecthasbeenshown toworkinmanytaxaincludinghumans,theseresultsmayhavebroadimplications.
