Abstract
Socialization refers to the development of an individual as a social being and participant in a society or social system. This implies that development is viewed in relation to certain specified social endpoints, which, in primate research, are usually defined functionally and with reference to species-typical norms. The course of social development is obviously subject to many different influences.
