Abstract
⺠Overall, primates in close relationships were more likely to behave prosocially. ⺠In many species, prosociality was more likely to be shown by dominant individuals. ⺠When recipients showed interest in rewards, prosociality was less likely. ⺠A greater benefit for the recipient than the donor often inhibited prosociality. ⺠Acknowledging these trends will aid in the reconstruction of prosocial evolution.
