Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • In captive female African Savannah elephants, antiphonal calls were clustered in bouts of rumbles separated by periods of relevant vocal inactivity.

    “In that study it was reported that these calls were clustered in bouts of rumbles separated by periods of relevant vocal inactivity.”

    From Rules of departure: Antiphony and personalized vocal spaces in wild male elephant group coordination (2024) · cites this paper as [40]

  • Studies on captive female African Savannah elephants have demonstrated the use of antiphonal vocalizations in affiliated individuals in a variety of social contexts.

    “Studies on captive female African Savannah elephants have demonstrated the use of antiphonal vocalizations in affiliated individuals in a variety of social contexts [40].”

    From Rules of departure: Antiphony and personalized vocal spaces in wild male elephant group coordination (2024) · cites this paper as [40]

  • True antiphonal vocalizations, also called cooperative vocal turn-taking, have been reported in elephants only in families and not in male groups, with anecdotal reporting in male groups.

    “True antiphonal vocalizations, also called cooperative vocal turn-taking, have been reported in the scientific literature - other than in humans - in a few species including apes [28,29], monkeys [30-34], and a few other primates, cetaceans [35-37], [38], meerkats [39], and elephants [16,40,41] (though only in families and not in male groups; but see [42] for anecdotal reporting).”

  • In the elephants in this study, socially affiliated individuals are preferred vocal partners.

    “Finally, socially affiliated bonobos are preferred vocal partners, a finding that holds true for the elephants in our study and those of [40] and [41].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
