Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

After conflict results in violence, primates are predicted to engage in reconciliation behavior as a way to mend relationships. This involves behaviors such as grooming, embracing or touching, and vocalization exchanges. Huddling may occur after reconciliation as a way to solidify social bonds, but it is not the direct result of conflict and violence. Coalition formation and altruism may be strategies used to avoid conflict in the first place rather than to repair relationships after conflict occurs.
