The objective of this study is to assess the effects of short-term maternal deprivation (birth to 12 weeks) followed by peer group rearing on the development of aggressive and subordinate behaviors in papio monkeys (superspecies - Papio cynocephalus). Nursery reared monkeys (34 males and 30 females) were compared with mother-peer reared monkeys (11 males and 12 females) in late infancy (6 to 12 months of age) and at the end of their juvenile stage (36 to 42 months of age) in social groups composed of 75% nursery reared subjects and 25% mother reared subjects. Focal animal data were analyzed with a repeated measure ANOVA model. In general, the nursery reared infants tended to be less aggressive than mother-peer reared infants and performed less dominance behaviors, such as displace. Significant sex differences were present in the performance of aggressive (â > â) and subordinate (â > â) behaviors. Significant age differences were observed, with infants having consistently higher rates of performance.
