SummaryA procedure originally developed for the study of post-conflict behaviour in captive groups was used to study a group of long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) in the wild. During 5 months, 156 post-conflict observations on victims of agonistic conflicts were collected and compared with matched-control observations. The findings reported previously for a captive group of the same species were confirmed. After a conflict victims scratched themselves more often and received more…

Post‐conflict Behaviour of Wild Olive Baboons. I. Reconciliation, Redirection and Consolation
Observations of post-conflict interactions have provided important insights into primate social organization. In this study, the nature and determinants of post-conflict behaviour in a troop of wild…
The Choice of Post-conflict Interactions in Wild Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes)
TLDR
Tai chimpanzees used reconciliation to resolve cone icts among high value partners and when approaching the former opponent was unlikely to entail further aggression, and consolation seemed to substitute for reconciliation when were opponents low value partners or approaching theFormer opponent was too risky, such as when further aggression was likely.
Affiliation Between Aggressors and Third Parties Following Conflicts in Long-Tailed Macaques (Macaca fascicularis)
TLDR
The findings emphasize that conflicts influence the behavior of other monkeys besides the direct contestants and, thus, indicate that the disturbance of social homeostasis is a matter of concern for all group members.
Postconflict behavior in captive western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla)
TLDR
The majority of the affiliative interactions observed for both reconciliation and consolation were social proximity, which suggests that unlike most nonhuman primates, proximity, rather than physical contact, may be the main mechanism for resolving conflicts in western lowland gorillas.
Patterns of reconciliation among captive gelada baboons (Theropithecus gelada): A brief report
Animals that live in groups are frequently exposed to conflict situations and must in some way maintain group cohesion. One mechanism that appears to restore social relationships after they have been…
Redirected aggression reduces the cost for victims in semi-provisioned free-ranging Japanese macaques (Macaca fuscata fuscata)
In many social species, the victim often attacks an uninvolved third individual soon after a conflict. This behaviour is called ‘redirected aggression’ or ‘redirection’, and its role(s) remain(s)…
Aggression and Reconciliation in Cebus capucinus
TLDR
White-faced capuchins reconciled mainly during the first minutes after the end of the conflict, and in kin and non-kin male/female dyads, selective attraction occurred, and aggressors were more likely to initiate affiliative contacts than aggressees.
Post-conflict opponent affiliation reduces victim re-aggression in a family group of captive arctic wolves (Canis lupus arctos)
TLDR
The hypothesis that post-conflict opponent affiliation (POA) in wolves may have been selected for as a mechanism to avoid conflict escalation, which could lead to social disruption and hence jeopardize cooperative activities is supported.
Postconflict Behavior of Captive Brown Capuchins in the Presence and Absence of Attractive Food
TLDR
A comparison of postconflict and control observations revealed a conciliatory tendency in the capuchins, but only following fights that occurred in the absence of highly attractive food, and when shortly after fights recipients of aggression, but not aggressors, initiated affiliation with third parties.
Post‐conflict Behaviour of Wild Olive Baboons. II. Stress and Self‐directed Behaviour
Previous studies indicate that the proximate function of post-conflict affiliative interaction among primates is to reduce a victim's uncertainty about its opponent's future behaviour: the…

TLDR
It is suggested that reconciliation can be an effective means to reduce the victim's acute stress and that its function in repairing social relationships can partly be mediated by its physiological effects.

TLDR
Results suggest that both dyadic and triadic reconciliations occur in M. nemestrina and that compared to other primate species, the species exhibits a moderate‐to‐high conciliatory tendency.
