Prep
When dominance rank was included as a covariate in frequency data analyses, the interaction between toy type and ______ was not significant
sex
The interaction between toy type and rank was also not significant when ______ data were transformed
frequency
The sex by toy interaction remained significant with rank as a covariate for untransformed ______ data
duration
We also conducted Spearman’s correlations to determine the relationship between rank and ______ or duration with each toy type
frequency
With both sexes combined, rank and total frequency were positively correlated for both the plush toy (rs=.43, p=.01, r2=.18) and the wheeled toy (rs=.38, p=.03, r2=.14), accounting for 18% and 14% of the ______, respectively
variance
For males, plush toy and wheeled toy total frequencies did not ______ significantly
correlate
For males, plush toy and wheeled toy total durations did not ______ significantly
correlate
The interaction between toy type and ______ remained significant even with rank as a covariate
sex
The toy by rank interaction was not ______ for untransformed duration data (F(1,31)=.05, p=.82)
significant
With both sexes combined, rank and total frequency were positively correlated for both the plush toy (rs=.43, p=.01, r2=.18) and the wheeled toy (rs=.38, p=.03, r2=.14), accounting for 18% and 14% of the ______, respectively
