Re: Two aspects you missed...
I would say that recognizing a disproportion is a kind of what I call "puzzle-solving".
The "mock threat" is an interesting concept, and certainly the response to tickling doesn't fit well into what I've said.
I don't know what you mean by "stroke" in this context, so I find it hard to respond to that.
Remus Shepherd, on rec.arts.sf.composition, comments that he doesn't think "social bonding" merits its own category; he feels that being in a group is simply a disinhibitor, that strengthens the responses to the other pathways. I think he has a point.
