Variation in personality can substitute for social feedback in coordinated animal movements

Planas-Sitjà, Deneubourg and Cronin use a theoretical approach to examine the importance of personality and feedback in the emergence of collective movement decisions in animal groups. Using a simulation of Capuchin monkey data they show that variation in personality dramatically influences collecti...
