ade Waal and Luttrell (1989): Data refer to all partners (kin and nonkin), and in the case of rhesus to the natural group. Approach frequency and conciliatory tendency concern adult-adult interactions only; all other measures concern behavior toward individuals 1.5 yr of age or older. Group composition: rhesus macaques: 4 adult males (≥5 yr), 20 adult females (≥4 yr); total group size ranged between 51 and 62 individuals. Stumptail macaques: 2 adult males, 12 adult females, total group size: 21 individuals
