I could be wrong, but ISTR that serotonin levels change in response to social status changes in monkeys -- maybe someone can correct me if it's a different neurotransmitter.

Seratonin is the right one (and dopamine a bit too, as can be expected by dopamine's general role as a 'reward' neurotransmitter.)
