hens: Guhl Hens Pecking Order

In zalmquist/networkdata: Lin Freeman's Network Data Collection

Description

hens: 32 by 32 non-symmetric binary matrix.

BACKGROUND The table records the “peck order" of a flock of 32 White Leghorn hens studied in 1946. When a 1 is present, the row hen can peck the column hen. The author claims that temporal changes are rare; once a hen dominates another, that pattern persists.
