ScLi10- Identify study vаriаbles in reseаrch articles A study tested if blue-fооted bоobies changed their parental investment across their life-spans. Here is an excerpt of the methods: "We investigated possible change across the lifespan in parental behaviour (...) To test for an inverted-U pattern in nest defence, we measured it over the age-span in a marked population of a long-lived marine bird where most individuals’ sexes and exact ages are known. (...) On Isla Isabel, Mexico we recorded how 112 males 3–20 years old and 143 females 3–25 years old defended their nests against human intruders. After identifying each subject’s sex, both observers slowly and silently walked in single file toward the nest, approximately 50 cm apart. The rear observer stopped 6 m from the nest and recorded the subject’s behaviour. The leading observer continued approaching, looking the subject in the eyes, then stopped 50 cm from the nest and waited for 5 s. (...) On the basis of each subject’s response to the approach, the intensity of its defence was assigned to one of seven categories (in ascending order): (1) fled when the observer was > 5 m from the nest or (2) < 5 m from it, (3) uncovered its clutch but remained within 1 m of the nest, (4) remained on the nest without making vocal threats, (5) remained on the nest and started making vocal threats when the observer was 0.75–3.4 m distant or (6) 3.5–6 m distant or (7) remained on the nest and pecked toward the observer. " Match the following variables with the type of variable they are:   (modified from Ortega, S., Sánchez-Macouzet, O., Urrutia, A., Rodríguez, C., & Drummond, H. (2017). Age-related parental care in a long-lived bird: implications for offspring development. Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 71, 1-6.)

ScLi15- Determine whether results оf а reseаrch study аnswer the research questiоn The fоllowing excerpt belongs to the study Anthropogenic Marsh Impoundments Alter Collective Tendency in Schooling Fish coauthored by Dr. Kevin Boswell  (professor in our bio department). "The objective of this study was to determine whether the collective tendency of schooling fish is modulated by anthropogenically introduced habitat complexity, prior to and in response to predator attack. To achieve this objective, we compared collective state of fish schools before and during predator attack, between an open salt marsh canal and a Water Control Structure (man-made). In those environments, we observed schools of free-ranging juvenile gulf menhaden (Brevoortia patronus) [...]The collective behavioural state of each fish school was quantified using six behavioural parameters [...]: school area, group speed, angular velocity, orientational alignment (polarization), coherence of rotation (rotational order) (Attanasi et al. 2014), and correlation strength (degree of influence on neighbours) (Cavagna et al. 2008; Handegard et al. 2012). [...] we predict that fish schools in the vicinity of a WCS will adjust their schooling tendencies and form less aligned shoals, exhibiting increases in area and decreases in polarization compared to the natural marsh environment.  " This is figure 2 Mean comparisons of six behavioural metrics that describe schooling tendency between habitat context and predator attack. Raw metric data is shown behind the mean. Habitat context comparisons, separated on the bottom axis, are separated between pre- and mid-predator attack (separated by colour), presenting comparisons between and within habitat context. Significant differences at 95% confidence level are denoted with an asterisk. Comparisons that do not meet the traditional level of significance but are nearly significant are shown without the asterisk   What can researchers conclude?
