  abstract = {{C}hanges in attraction and repulsion indicators, depending on the species and the group size, were explored under controlled conditions. {T}wo species, displaying different schooling behaviours in the wild were observed: the bigeye scad {S}elar crumenophthalmus and the barred flagtail {K}uhlia mugil. {I}n the bigeye scad, the polarity and speed were high and stable, and the nearest neighbour distance ({D}-{NN}) decreased when the group size increased. {I}n contrast, for the barred flagtail, polarity and speed decreased according to the group size, inducing a loss of cohesion and leading to a disorganized school. {T}he {D}-{NN} mean was stable whatever the group size and relatively high. {T}his experiment indicated that the ability to polarize is first a species-specific trait, rather than a property emerging from the group and led by the circumstances.},
