When does ownership matter? Parents’ reasoning about children's conflicts over possessions
In three studies ( N = 854), including one pre‐registered study, we examined factors that might influence American parents’ decisions to side with owners versus promote prosociality or sharing when thinking about children's property conflicts. We found that parents’ thinking about property conflicts was affected by the relationships among the parents and their children. Namely, parents were most likely to side with owners when their child was des…
Ecogeography/Macroecology (Range and Body Size)
Macroecology is a statistical investigation of large‐scale patterns of species diversity in order to elucidate mechanisms controlling the structure and dynamics of biotas. Though the term “macroecology” was first used in the late 1980s, its foundations were laid much earlier through fields such as biogeography, ecology, and macroevolutionary biology. Some of the most general and best‐researched patterns in macroecology include species–area relati…
Lemurs in a complex landscape: Mapping species density in subtropical dry forests of southwestern Madagascar using data at multiple levels
The study of southern dry forest lemurs has been largely restricted to small reserves; yet, the majority of the region's lemur populations reside outside protected areas. Lemur catta and Propithecus verreauxi occupy the same forests but have different dietary preferences. This study assessed L. catta and P. verreauxi population densities across a 3‐km dry forest gradient (1,539 ha) in southern Madagascar. The study was designed to allow lemur den…
