Humans' neocortex is responsible for holding the patterns of an average of 150 relationships to other people. (Anthropological data, I'm responding on an impulse.) This is only what I know from being a complex adaptive systems nerd. Interestingly, this is directly proportional to the weight of human & other brains. (3 pounds or 1300-1400 g/ 150).The idea of proportionality in that sense, is derived from only a few well studied great ape brains.

Hope this helps.
