Hypothesis
"Demand" is not correlated with other aspects of food sharing.
Note
Demand Sharing is defined by the authors: "In small-scale societies it is common for individuals to demand or ask others for a part of their resources. This practice is known as Demand Sharing and is considered one of the most basic forms of distribution (Macdonald 2000; Widlok 2013)". Demand is grouped alone in the cluster analysis, but is grouped with prestige-related activities in the multidimensional scaling model.
