Parental rejection is associated with total offspring produced in A. nancymaae.
“Rejector parents produced more offspring overall, but this difference was explained by extended lifespan rather than higher reproductive output per year.”

Parental rejection is associated with lifespan in A. nancymaae (Approximately 4-4.5 years longer average lifespan in both males and females).
“Parents who rejected offspring lived significantly longer than non-rejectors, with an average lifespan advantage of approximately 4-4.5 years in both males and females.”

Parental rejection is associated with fearfulness in A. nancymaae.
“Rejected adults displayed heightened fearfulness and aggression with reduced paternal care”

Parental rejection is associated with survival to reproductive age in A. nancymaae.
“Critically, well-reared offspring of rejected parents exhibited similar reductions in survival to reproductive age and lifespan.”
