Higher-ranking animals performed more affiliation and had more affiliative partners, with males directing affiliation preferentially towards females. Dominance, sex, group size and provisioning all affected aggression, with provisioned animals receiving more aggression

Sex and body condition had limited impact on endoparasite infection and mostly impacted nematode infections. Provisioning and herd size were important risk factors, showing contrasting impacts on endoparasite infections at genus level.

Hey everyone! 🦇🦇
Another bat paper submitted ! More about the larynx in bats and its uncommon anatomical features. We also discuss potential implication in vocalisation and nasal echolocation in evolutionary context.
You can find our preprint here:

Understanding the difference between Standard Deviation (SD) and Standard Error (SE) is crucial for accurate data interpretation. SD measures the variability within your data, indicating how spread out the individual data points are from the mean.
In contrast, SE measures the uncertainty around the sample mean as an estimate of the population mean. It reflects the precision of the mean, with SE decreasing as the sample size increases, making your estimate more reliable.
The relationship between SD and SE is given by the formula: SE = SD / √(sample size). While SD remains relatively constant with larger samples, SE diminishes, highlighting the reduced uncertainty in the mean estimate.
A common mistake in research is using the “±” notation without specifying whether it refers to SD or SE, leading to potential misinterpretation of the data. Clear distinction is essential for transparency and accuracy in reporting.
Key Takeaways:
• Use SD to describe data variability.
• Use SE to indicate the precision of the mean.
• Always specify which measure you are reporting.

@ScrapNaturalist Hi! Maybe it is just a translation error and not a term-misconception. They are Brazilians, their native language is not English. Similar stuff happens when English speakers try to communicate in Spanish. They make mistakes. Reviewers should keep eyes open to prevent those errors
