Abstract
Four monkeys were tested in varied short-term groupings in which individual monkeys were predicted to be alternatively the highest, the lowest, and the intermediate animal in dominance. Their overt behaviors in each hour test, especially submissive behaviors in subordinate animals, correlated well with rank; but measures of blood cortisol and 17-hydroxycorticosteroid secretion did not.Keywords
