| Abstract: | After repeated determinations of the social dominance hierarchy in a group of 10 rhesus monkeys over a 20-month period, the monkey ranked eighth in dominance was used as a conditioned stimulus for pain-avoidance for the other animals. After conditioning training it was found that the social dominance of the stimulus monkey showed a significant increase. |
