Polychotomous traits and evolution under conformity.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 27 Sept 2022

Denton Kaleda K, Liberman Uri, Feldman Marcus W

Abstract excerpt

Conformist and anticonformist transmission of dichotomous cultural traits (i.e., traits with two variants) have been studied both experimentally, in many species, and theoretically, with mathematical models. Signatures of types of conformity to polychotomous traits (with more than two variants; e.g., baby names and syllables in bird song) have been inferred from population-level data, but there are few models...
