“…Veenema et al, 1994). In contrast, no kin vs. nonkin difference existed in Macaca sylvana (Aureli et al, 1997), M. arctoides (Veenema et al, 1994), or M. tonkeana (Demaria and Thierry, 2001;Thierry, 1990). Conciliatory tendencies were also higher between kin in Papio anubis Castles and Whiten, 1998) and Cebus capucinus (Manson et al, 2005; Table I).…”

“…However, only a few chimpanzee studies have been conducted using the PC/MC control method and the correction factor proposed by VEENEMA et al (1994) which subtracts the baseline affiliation from post-conflict affiliation. Therefore it is difficult to make specific comparisons and assertions about baseline chimpanzee reconciliation behaviors.…”

“…DE WAAL and YOSH|HARA suggested that following conflict, attraction rather than dispersal is likely to occur and former opponents are likely to interact affiliatively through close proximity and body contact. VEENEMA et al (1994) refined the PC (post-conflict)-MC (matched control) data collection methodology with the addition of a correction factor that removed baseline behavior from post-conflict interaction data (see also VEENEMA, 2000). This resulted in a more robust measure called the Corrected Conciliatory…”

“…Conciliatory tendency was calculated by dividing the attracted pairs by the total number of conflicts. Corrected conciliatory tendency (CCT) was calculated by subtracting the dispersed pairs from the attracted pairs and dividing the result by the total number of conflicts (VEENEMA, 2000;VEENEMA et al, 1994). Consolation, redirection, and proximity tendencies were calculated in the same manner (with attracted pairs exhibiting the behavior in question only or first in the PC, dispersed pairs only or first in the MC and neutral pairs not at all).…”

Conflict and post-conflict behavior in a small group of chimpanzees

ABSTRACT. Chimpanzee research plays a central role in the discussions of conflict negotiation. Reconciliation, or the attraction and affiliation of former opponents following conflict, has been proposed as a central element of conflict negotiation in chimpanzees and various other taxa. In an attempt to expand the database of chimpanzee conflict resolution, conflict and post-conflict behavior were recorded for a small group of socially housed chimpanzees at the Chimpanzee and Human Communication Institute, at Central Washington University, Data were collected over six 6-week periods between 1997 and 2000, for a total of 840 hours of observation, resulting in a substantial post-conflict (PC) and matched control (MC) data set. The data demonstrate this group's tendencies to maintain visual contact and closer proximity after conflicts. Dyadic corrected conciliatory tendencies ranged between 0 -37.5% and averaged 17.25% across all dyads. Individual corrected conciliatory tendencies ranged between 5.8 and 32%. The results of this study combined with recent publications on captive and free-ranging chimpanzee post-conflict behavior suggest that variation in post-conflict behavior may be important to our understanding of chimpanzee conflict negotiation, and may also have implications for the design and management of captive chimpanzee enclosures and social groups, respectively.
