  1. Jan 10, 2022 · Empirically, pairwise dominance relations often form a linear order or dominance hierarchy in an enormous range of species, including chimpanzees and bonobos [5–10] and humans [11–17]. Why are dominance hierarchies so common? To address this question, standard evolutionary game theorists developed variants of the hawk-dove game [18,19]. In ...

  2. Jun 29, 2023 · The authors show that social hierarchies have a pyramidal structure across species. From infancy, humans use this assumption to infer unobserved dominance relations.

  3. Jan 10, 2022 · It is important to note, however, that while many forms of social hierarchy observed among human groups do provide benefits to coordination and collective action, the extent of inequality within such hierarchies can be consequential (see ). In many cases, those with low relative standing will receive minimal benefits, and upward mobility across the hierarchy may be challenging.

  4. In a dominance hierarchy, individuals are arrayed in a line from most to least dominant; individuals are dominant to those below them in the hierarchy and subordinate to those above them in the hierarchy. In most social groups, dominance hierarchies are more linear than expected by chance . Some of this linearity is owing to differences in ...

  5. Challenges to dominance in humans Although we have every reason to suspect that the evolutionary processes and incentives identified by the logic of the models described above will apply to humans, identifying and studying dominance in our species poses particular challenges due to the influence of both

  6. Jan 10, 2022 · These dominance ranks are then compared with other covariates of interest to understand causes and consequences of position in the dominance hierarchy in social systems . Although the traditional static approach has produced valuable insight into the role of dominance in social systems, it side-steps challenges associated with the dynamics of dominance, i.e. changes in dominance hierarchies ...

  8. Dominance traits are seen in virtually all primate species, and these dimensions reflect how adept an individual is at ascending within a social hierarchy. Among great apes, dominance is one of the most prominent personality factors but, in humans, dominance is usually modeled as a facet of extraversion.
