The performance of any natural population in variable environments depends on contemporaneous changes in its vital rates (e.g., survival, reproduction) as well as legacies carried by its population structure. Yet whether the relative contribution of these two pathways can be predicted from life history remains unknown....

An important currency for individuals is their lifetime reproductive success (LRS), which is random simply due to demographic stochasticity. That randomness determines extinction probability. However, the distribution of LRS is also significantly affected by environmental variation. Previously we have shown (for a rand...
The demands of complex social life are thought to drive the evolution of cognition in primates. One important approach to testing this hypothesis is to assess if variation in psychological processes impacts an individual’s fitness outcomes, but this can be challenging in primates where field experiments are rare. Here,...
