The preliminary research provided background for the following hypothesis: ``As the space available to antlion groups decreases, each claims less territory, and the populations tend towards more extreme behaviors, such as cannibalism and reclusivity, to limit competition for ants as an emergent feature of individual interactions.''
Throughout the experiment several dependent variables were tested, with the independent variable acting as the size of the container, which changed from trial to trial, but did not change due to any other variable.
In continuation of this, the dependent variables throughout the experiment were the settlement patterns and behaviors of the antlions, which were quantified through the nearest neighbor calculation, pit depth and width, and the number of cannibalized antlions.
-The control trial of the experiment was the 32x32 trial, as it shows the spatial patterns and behaviors of the antlions with the most available space, limiting the effect of competition on settlement patterns, which qualifies it to be a good control group
