Dataset Work-conflicts in acacia ants

Data recorded from videos of field colonies from different sizes, while workers were executing a solitary foraging task. Ants had color-marks depending on the task they were performing, that were recoded as "leaf" and "trunk" after scoring the videos. "Leaf ants" were workers marked at foraging tasks on the leaves; "Trunk ants" were workers marked guarding the tree trunk base. There are unmarked ants that were involved in head-on encounters and in work-conflicts. Besides the binary variables of whether that foraging bout had encounters or conflicts, we added the number of conflicts and encounters with other workers. The data also includes total time the ant was observed(Focal Ant time), time until the task was executed (Execution time), time the ants spent in work-conflicts (Conflict time), all reported in seconds. There is also a column explaining whether the food item was stored or removed from the tree, and whether the final decision was made by the original worker who found the item, or by a nestmate.本数据集采集自不同规模野外蚁群的视频素材，记录了工蚁执行单独觅食任务时的相关数据。工蚁根据其所承担的任务被施加颜色标记，在对视频完成评分标注后，将对应工蚁划分为"叶片蚁"与"树干蚁"两类：其中"叶片蚁"指负责叶片区域觅食任务的标记工蚁，"树干蚁"指负责守卫树干基部的标记工蚁。此外，还有未被标记的工蚁参与了正面遭遇与工作冲突事件。 除了记录该觅食回合是否存在遭遇或冲突这一二元分类变量外，本数据集还补充了该工蚁与其他工蚁发生冲突与遭遇的次数。数据集同时包含以下以秒为单位的统计指标：被观测工蚁的总观测时长（Focal Ant time）、任务执行耗时（Execution time）以及工蚁在工作冲突中花费的时长（Conflict time）。另有一列数据用于说明食物是否被储存或搬离该树木，以及最终决策是由发现食物的原工蚁做出，还是由其巢友做出。
