Memory in coal tits: an alternative model. (English) Zbl 1059.62697

Summary: I. T. Jolliffe and A. R. Jolliffe [Biometrics 53, 1136–1142 (1997; Zbl 0891.62084)] proposed various models for data from an experiment on memory in coal tits. This article describes an alternative model, which fits equally well and which may be simpler to interpret.
