The effect of the presence of a familiar social partner on the interactions of saddle back tamarins with unfamiliar conspecifics was studied. Fifteen adult male-female pairs, of which six were composed of a castrated male and an intact female, served as subjects. All subject pairs were given two social encounters during which both mates met a strange male and two encounters during which they met a strange female. In addition, all subjects were given four encounters during which they met the same strangers while their own pair mates were absent. As a group, the subjects showed higher intensities of injurious aggression and of agonistic displays when they met strangers in the presence of their own pair mates. Females and castrated males, as subgroups, showed significant increases in most agonistic responses when they met strangers in the presence of their pair mates. Intact males, however, did not.
研究了熟悉的社交伙伴的存在对鞍背绢毛猴与陌生同种个体互动的影响。15 对成年雌雄个体，其中 6 对由去势雄性和未去势雌性组成，作为研究对象。所有研究对象对都进行了两次社交接触，在这两次接触中，每对伴侣都遇到了一只陌生雄性，两次接触中，每对伴侣都遇到了两只陌生雌性。此外，所有研究对象都进行了四次接触，在这些接触中，当它们遇到相同的陌生个体时，它们自己的伴侣不在场。作为一个整体，当研究对象在自己的伴侣在场的情况下遇到陌生个体时，它们表现出更高强度的伤害性攻击和争斗行为。雌性和去势雄性作为亚组，当它们在伴侣在场的情况下遇到陌生个体时，它们的大多数争斗反应显著增加。然而，未去势雄性并没有增加。
