Zusammenfassung

We thank K. B. Wray for his Letter, but we disagree with his interpretation of the terminology he uses. Wray presents a false dichotomy between “wisdom of the crowds” and “democratic decision-making.” In the study of collective animal behavior, “shared consensus” (also referred to as “democratic consensus”) means that each individual contributes to the decision-making process approximately equally [see (1–4)]. “Wisdom of the crowds” refers to the enhancement in decision-making accuracy that can be achieved by aggregating information or preferences across many individuals (5) and can be an outcome of shared decision-making processes (2). Our data provide evidence that when the angle between initiated directions is above a critical angle, as predicted by the theory of shared decision-making (6), baboons tend to follow the majority, thus potentially benefiting from the “wisdom of the crowds.”
