Nature of Aggression

Aggressive attack is a typical basis for all antisocial behavior and is a major concern in the fields of behavior, development, social and clinical psychology, and involved in almost all other fields of psychology doing. It is a way to defend individuals' personalities, to raise individual social status, and often to protect themselves from physical harm - every objective is important to maintaining individual mental health.

Nature of aggression (or child rearing?) There are reports of murder, war, rape every night. But this news is not the only thing people are exposed to violence and invasion. After coming home from work, people are blocked and attentive every day. At school, children insist on those who will be the first in the lunch series. People will be squeezed unless they go fast enough on the street. The list can continue. Focus on humans

There is no consensus on the real cause of the attack, but there are several theories surrounding it. Terry and Jackson (1985) emphasizes the nature of genetic predisposition (instinct) and the aggressiveness hypothesis which shows that the aggressive regression - aggression is the product of two factors. On the other hand, Bandura (1976) considers aggression as a social learning aspect of human behavior. Figure 1 combines these three elements

It is associated with two main types of attacks, active and reactive, contrast expressed, priming factors, neural pathways, development and function. This distinction helps to understand the nature and evolution of human aggression. Compared to many primates, humans have a strong tendency to actively attack, which is shared with chimpanzees but not shared with Bonobos. By contrast, humans are less likely to react aggressively than chimpanzees, humans are like bonobos in this regard. Bimodal classification of attacks by humans helps solve two important problems. Firstly, long-term debate about the importance of aggression in mankind is wrong, since both positions are partially correct. While the position of Hobbes - Huxley correctly recognizes the enormous possibilities of active violence, the position of Rousseau - Kropotkin correctly points out the low frequency of reactive attacks
