Animal behaviour

an index of how close a set of dominance relations comes to a perfectly linear rank order, from zero to one.

In animal behaviour, Landau's linearity index refers to an index of how close a set of dominance relations comes to a perfectly linear rank order, from zero to one. This meaning comes from Landau (1951) in The Bulletin of Mathematical Biophysics.[1]
