SOCPROG is a set of programs which analyses data on animal associations, including mark-recapture population analyses and movement analyses, written in the programming language MATLAB and may be downloaded free from the World Wide Web.
Analyzing Animal Societies: Quantitative Methods for Vertebrate Social Analysis
- H. Whitehead
- Biology, Sociology
- 2008
Hal Whitehead presents a conceptual framework for analyzing social behavior and demonstrates how to put this framework into practice by collecting suitable data on the interactions and associations of individuals so that relationships can be described, and, from these, models can be derived.
Sperm Whales: Social Evolution in the Ocean
- H. Whitehead
- Biology
- 1 August 2003
The crucial role that culture plays in the life of the sperm whale is explored, and a general model of how the ocean environment influences social behaviour and cultural evolution among mammals as well as other animals is built.

The under‐exploited potential of experimental manipulations on social networks to address research questions is highlighted, and an overview of methods for quantifying properties of nodes and networks, as well as for testing hypotheses concerning network structure and network processes are provided.

Bejder et al. (1998) permuted association matrices under Monte-Carlo methods by using a sequential routine developed by Manly (1995) for an analogous ecological problem, which represents a substantial development in the ability to test social structures for evidence of nonrandom associations.
