In this study, responses to the formation of social groups were compared between adult male and female Papio cynocephalus anubis. Quantitative behavioral data based on systematic focal animal sampling were used to test the hypothesis that adult male and female olive baboons are similar in their behavioral response to (1) the formation of monosexual social groups and (2) the simultaneous reduction of social unit and habitat size. Males and females differed (t test, p less than 0.05) in performance of sexual, tension, and stereotypy behavior during large group formations. During small group formations, males and females differed in play, subordinate, locomotion, manipulation, sexual, tension, and stereotypy behavior. Our observations, clearly indicate that in captivity, under conditions of identical housing, social structure, and social unit history, males and females differ in their behavior performance. Our data suggest that some socioenvironmental conditions, such as the lack of heterosexual grouping, may exaggerate those differences.
在本研究中，对成年雄性和雌性东非狒狒（Papio cynocephalus anubis）对社会群体形成的反应进行了比较。基于系统的焦点动物取样的定量行为数据被用于检验以下假设：成年雄性和雌性橄榄狒狒在对（1）单性社会群体的形成以及（2）社会单元和栖息地规模同时缩小的行为反应上是相似的。在大群体形成过程中，雄性和雌性在性行为、紧张行为和刻板行为的表现上存在差异（t检验，p小于0.05）。在小群体形成过程中，雄性和雌性在玩耍、从属行为、运动、操控、性行为、紧张行为和刻板行为上存在差异。我们的观察结果清楚地表明，在圈养环境中，在相同的饲养条件、社会结构和社会单元历史情况下，雄性和雌性在行为表现上存在差异。我们的数据表明，一些社会环境条件，比如缺乏异性群体，可能会加剧这些差异。
