I saw this collocation in a book, but I didn't find something on my dictionary, so I decided to ask you.

  What do you think the "literal meaning" is? Sometimes it might specifically be used in contrast to uneasiness (i.e. - not being shy, nervous in company). Other times it means functioning well as part of a social group, sociable. But most likely it has a more precise definition in the field of social psychology.
