Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

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

  • Two extreme kinds of social structure are possible: subordinate animals can form transitive dominance relationships (linear dominance hierarchy) or be equal to each other (uniform, despotic group with one dominant).

    “Within this basic picture, two extreme kinds of social structure are possible: the subordinate animals can form transitive dominance relationships between them (which results in linear dominance hierarchy, that is, Reference 96), or be equal to each other (comprising uniform, despotic group with one dominant, that is, Reference 97).”
  • Social dominance can be reliably found in mice kept in captivity, both laboratory mice and wild ones.

    “Keeping this limitation in mind, social dominance can be reliably found in mice kept in captivity.This is true both for laboratory mice 72,92,96,135,136 and wild ones.80,137”
  • Social hierarchy in mice is maintained through constant, serious aggression, whose intensity can hugely differ between lines.

    “Social hierarchy is maintained through constant, serious aggression, 24,96 which intensity can hugely differ between lines.70,91”
  • Typically, after a short time, a dominant male emerges in every group of captive mice.

    “Typically, after a short time, a dominant male emerges in every group.80,96”

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.
