Abstract
Reactions were most positive/enthusiastic in the rival territory, least positive/enthusiastic in the home territory, and intermediate in a contested territory and on the periphery of the home territory. The highest reaction was in the rival territory. These results provide evidence for an evolved coalitional psychology that influences current relevant behaviors.
